So I finally got into tiling window managers and tried out hyprland. I spent quite a good amount configuring everything and there is still a hell of a lot more to do, but I am already loving the matching colors and the general look and feel.
Nah, i3 is pretty old and like most Xorg WMs, it has no plans for moving Wayland (AFAIK). But Sway is a drop-in replacement that works nearly the same and is even compatible with i3's config files. I could switch today if there wasn't all the other stuff that needs to be configured for Wayland (screenshots, clipboard, screenlocker etc.).
