Release submissions should really include a description what the project is about.
Is explicit sync for nvidia in yet?
Sway is bae. Been using it for a bit now... I just really like how responsive it is. Bless the pinephones sxmo project to teaching me the way.
From their webpage ... sounds pretty cool:
Sway is a tiling Wayland compositor and a drop-in replacement for the i3 window manager for X11. It works with your existing i3 configuration and supports most of i3's features, plus a few extras.
Sway allows you to arrange your application windows logically, rather than spatially. Windows are arranged into a grid by default which maximizes the efficiency of your screen and can be quickly manipulated using only the keyboard.
Sway is cool, but no support for Nvidia proprietary drivers, unfortunately.
I've been using it for a while now, its been robust and extensible. I think its only real downside is that its too extensible as out of the the box not much comes as standard that you might expect if you coming from something like gnome, such as a control panel, auto tiling, a lock screen, or screen capture (although this release seems to fix setting that up now). This should be expected as its a WM not a DE.
Keep in mind that sway is written by Drew Devault who is a mentally ill creep (eg https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41837782)
Drew started the project but he isn’t really involved anymore. Simon Ser is the lead maintainer now.
