It’s wonderful that we’ve moved on from a time when scrolling wms were kludgy experiments! It looks like now we have at least two solid options.

I have used this when it was still pretty new. I already liked it a lot more than Hyprland. Dev was very responsive and friendly. The combination of tiling and scrolling is very cool!

I think this is a very promising project.

Does look like a pretty cool project. I don’t like using AUR packages for my system dependencies though. Pretty happy with Niri right now, so I can wait.
