▲ 127 ▼ Minimal Wayland Software? (mander.xyz) submitted 3 years ago by SnailMagnitude@mander.xyz to c/linux@lemmy.ml 41 comments fedilink hide all child comments Will be doing a fresh install on an old laptop in the near future and was considering trying wayland. Can you recommend a decent & light window manager & terminal emulator? I've played around with wayland but always ended up back on xorg, was gonna give it another shot.
[–] dino@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 years ago (2 children) How does hyperland configuration compare to sway? Or is it exactly the same? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] PAPPP@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 3 years ago They're both simple text formats, but Hyprland uses a "key = value" type config with section labels. Sway is largely compatible with i3 config files which are more like an unstructured script. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Chewy7324@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 3 years ago I like sways configuration file more because the naming on hyprland isn't stellar. But hyprland has a config for anything I'd ever need which is awesome. permalink fedilink source parent
