This is similar to bspwm, except new workspaces aren't automatically created and empty workspaces are skipped. Although creating a script to handle this should be possible, sway doesn't offer any real benefits to me since bspwm does everything that sway can do with the addition of input method, image preview, and other features being better supported on xorg. To reiterate, I like the idea behind sway, however I am more fluent with bspwm and xorg and prefer how windows are managed in bspwm. For software that only works on wayland, sway is a lightweight alternative to committing to a full-featured desktop environment like GNOME. |
