I’ve been suggested to use a tiling window manager like Sway since it allows for controlling windows with hotkeys, but I’m having trouble getting started. I installed it in Fedora and tried logging back in with SwayFX (since it has features like blurring) but after I’m just shown a wallpaper with a top bar, the top left shows a 1 and the top right shows the time. I don’t know what to do there. I tried looking up guides but didn’t find anything, can you link me some if you know of any?

    In a nutshell – sway has a “all-in-one” config. You can set up keyboard, mouse, screen resolution and even the screen Hz on its single file.

    But yeah, if you want to (really) fiddle with it, you’ve got to learn how to deal with the config file first.

    For instance, here is my completely messed up config file for sway.
