Currently setting up a wayland environment. Coming from xfce4 and cinnamon before that. I'm currently setting up a window manager for keybindings (i know about river-classic, but seem to have chosen the masochist's path for this excursion). would appreciate any advice you have about setting up the window manager. I've previous experience with writing a cinnamon inspired dynamic tiler, will that help here? would also appreciate tips on choosing things like toolbars, launchers, and setting themes. We're still in gtk territory, right?

Thanks for any time you spend on this thread! Maybe I can re rewrite this, or compile a new thread with your advices.

Can't help you with river specifically, but I went from running x11 with openbox, to Wayland with sway. Sway has a really good ecosystem of tools like swaybg for wallpaper. I use waybar, pcmanfm, and rofi.
