    I’m a big fan of niri, which is a scrolling tiling compositor. I always had a soft spot for tiling wms/compositors, but couldn’t stick with any of them for long until I tried niri, and wholeheartedly embraced the scrolling tiling world.

    Very friendly upstream & community, and written in a modern language, too.

      I dont think ill like scrolling tiling but you never know so ill try. At first i thought tiling was stupid and now look i feel like im digitally dissabled when i use a pure floating system.

      If touchpad gestures work, I’m putting that on my macbook air. That looks so comfortable.

        It does support a number of gestures, yeah. Can’t comment on how well they work, because I do not use a touchpad. But if the quality of the rest of the compositor is any indication, they should work really darn well.
