I’ve been on the fence since I’ve been trying Hyprland. What I want out of a window manager / DE is lots of window customization settings (borders, animations, etc.), & having configuration inside one file or one directory with hot-reloading (I’m switching from KDE since its config files all over the place). Hyprland is very popular among WM users with a large ecosystem, though I prefer stacking rather than tiling. I can make it work with some window rules, and shell scripts using hyprctl & jq.
I’m wondering how many little things I will need to fix / figure out. For instance, when I open the firefox bookmarks library with CTRL SHIFT O. When that window is open but not focused, and not on top, if I press CTRL SHIFT O again on a DE it comes back to the top, but not on Hyprland. I could probably find a fix for that?
I might be answering my own question but I really want to hear thoughts.
maybe, he mentioned stacked mode on a tiling compositor, which is valid, but that’s not a thing on stacking compositors… BTW, the stack mode on sway doesn’t mean it turns into a stacking compositor, rather it means tabbed mode with the tabs stacked vertically. But the OP knows better.
