I've never heard of mangowc, and I'm scared of falling down another rabbit hole after cycling through so many window managers just to end up with sway again. I will not relapse.

Like Hyprland AND want to try Niri at the same time? BOOM MangoWC. Been using it for months now. Don't ever see myself going back to Hyprland. Completely bypassed the Niri hype too. It has tiling and scrolling modes. You can toggle between them. Just as smooth as Hyprland without all the bloat. Plus whenever someone says something about some window manger or DE you can now respond, 'no thank you, I'll have the Mango.'

If you stay on X, you can keep using the same window manager for longer. My XMonad config is over a decade old, and I bet my old dwm config.h still compiles.
