minus-squarerumschlumpel@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up17arrow-down3·9 months agoExtreme shortage of desktop environments that support Wayland. I don’t want to use either Gnome or KDE, I’m currently using LXQt with i3wm.
minus-squareTurboWafflz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·9 months agoIf you like i3, sway is a drop in replacement for it that uses wayland. I’m not sure if you could make LXQt work with it but it’s worth a shot
minus-squarerumschlumpel@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-29 months agoYou cannot, no desktop environment except Gnome and KDE has Wayland support beyond experimental status. If I was content with running no desktop environment at all, I could already do that on Xorg.
minus-squareSwingingKoala@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up3·9 months agoLast time I checked sway did not support everything in my i3 config file. I’ve been testing wayland for the last decade or so, it never managed to deliver on its promises.

minus-squareangrymouse@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·9 months agoIsn’t sway an decent alternative to i3?
