I was using regolith ubuntu on an old MacBook and fell in love with i3wm on x11 or whatever it uses. Got a new computer Intel and the composters never worked right scrolling pages or watching videos. I gave up and went back to stock ubuntu. Wayland works well for me but my question is how hard is it to build a de like regolith using awesome it some other tiler? It seems intimidating

    Regolith can be set up to use sway instead so you can get i3 experience in Wayland. It’s just a matter of picking the right package groups listed in their installation guide. I’m running it at work currently, had some issues with my Lenovo dock from time to time, but otherwise works pretty good.

      Good to know. Thankyou! I was so upset a ubuntu update bricked my old MacBook and I bought a new laptop instead of dealing with it.
