Shit, just linux.

Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though… go nuts

I have no idea how to use SwayWM (lemmy.world)

I've been suggested to use a tiling window manager like Sway since it allows for controlling windows with hotkeys, but I'm having trouble getting started. I installed it in Fedora and tried logging back in with SwayFX (since it has features like blurring) but after I'm just shown a wallpaper with a top bar, the top left shows a 1 and the top right shows the time. I don't know what to do there. I tried looking up guides but didn't find anything, can you link me some if you know of any?

wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sway and github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki are probably good starting points.

I haven't used this yet, but it appears to be based on i3. Maybe you can use an i3 guide?
