Minimal Wayland Software? - eviltoast

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.

      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.

      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.
