Any recommendations for a Hyprland refugee? Thinking of trying out niri…
I’ve been eyeing https://codeberg.org/river/river
river is great. It’s far more stable than any other wayland compositor I’ve used.
After this news I switched to using KDE with Karousel, an animation plugin, and a rounded corners plugin (kwin scripts).
I also use a command runner plasmoid to somewhat replicate waybar from shell scripts.

That looks awesome! Having used fvwm, I’m a fan of the scrollable desktop
I’ve been using swayfx, a fork of Sway with a little more eye candy.
None of the suggestions are even close to how good hyprland is. Like not even a little close.
river
Hyprland has special workspaces, plugins which became part of my worksapace. I don’t think river can replace it. i3 has features like these but i couldn’t find anything similar in river.
I can only recommend niri!
I like niri, but I’ll be damned if I can get any kind of stability out of it. I’ll have myself a flawless time at home testing, but as soon as my laptop enters University Grounds it stops launching apps, or crashes, or whatever else.
Right now I’m using Gnome/PaperWM since Infinite horizontal has changed my workflow so dramatically, and Gnome is more stable for me.
I’m a fan of qtile. Used it when it was x11 only and use it on Wayland now.
