Sway is essentially i3 + Wayland, so it shouldn’t be a hard switch once X11 goes EOL.

    I actually used Sway for a while. Can't remember why I switched back though. What would X11 "going end-of-life" entail? Not being distributed/packaged anymore? Is there an official timeline for that or something?

    Essentially they're not doing feature work on the core codebase. I'm not sure if that's true or not, but the packaging of it wouldn't be up to the developers but the distro maintainers.
