If you like i3 but want to try Wayland pain-free - Sway uses i3's config file syntax, so you shouldn't have to change anything to try it out :)

Caveat emptor: your normal apps might struggle still.

Some common things have wayland native replacements but it might be jarring.

Redshift (automatic Color temperature change) -> gammastep

Dunst (notifications) -> mako

Rofi (launcher) -> idk I just used kitty+fzf with some special options.

there is a wayland replacement for rofi called wofi. i didn't use rofi for anything particularly intensive so it was a drop in replacement for me

wlsunset was a lot simpler for me to get to work compared to gammastep, which I thought had too steep a learning curve. I only need it for the yellow light, thought.

Dunst is native wayland since early 2021[1]. Instead of rofi, bemenu[2] is nice too.

I can’t do else but praise sway. Long lost perfect WM.

Oh interesting. I don’t know if I set anything specific but I usually just invoke it with my lat/long and it seems to work.

Will look at wlsunset too, maybe it’s a better UX. :)
