    This is sad. I still prefer xorg over Wayland. I have so many small customizations that depend on devilspie, wnck, and other tools that don’t have a complete Wayland replacement yet.

      I mean, I don’t disagree, but at some point it’s gotta change if one is going to ever be able to have desktop apps that run sandboxed. X was never designed to have untrusted and trusted apps running on the same desktop, and the ways of approximating that are non-ideal.

      What WM are you using? If it’s sticking specific application windows on specific workspaces, i3 can do that:

      And I understand that sway is mostly compatible with i3.
