This was my attempt at using yambar in both Xorg and Wayland with the
anybar dwm patch however starting yambar resulted in the session being
unresponsive until yambar was killed from another tty.
Avizo had some issues that ultimately made me return to the old and
reliable dunst. For example, the home-manager service would fail to
restart after the computer was idle for a set amount of time.
The way avizo manages its window also resulted in compositors like
Hyprland and picom showing a blur artifact when avizo tried to fade
itself. Ultimately using dunst simplifies things and avoids having
to look in two different places for notifications.
This was cool but there were a few issues such as me not being able to
find the infamous "dock patch" despite grepping for dock on
https://dwm.suckless.org/patches/, which resulted in the keyboard hiding
tiled windows and being below floating windows.
There was also an issue where starting corekeyboard from dwm would
result in styling not being applied compared to starting it from the
terminal.
A third issue was that from a quick attempt I couldn't get callaudiod to
start inside dwm, which was required for gnome-calls.
Overall it looks like I will be using Phosh until further notice on the
PinePhone, as I've already gotten it to work well enough for my use case.
This worked and was *significantly* faster than Phosh but resulted in a
lot of phone things broken like phone calls and the camera. Overall
quite cool to run dwm on the PinePhone but not really practical when
trying to use the PinePhone as a phone.
Note that it's possible to use an autostart patch like
https://dwm.suckless.org/patches/cool_autostart/ so startx isn't
needed although this results in dwm starting before things like
the status bar get set.
