I’ve been using swayfx, a fork of Sway with a little more eye candy.

What hardware solution did you go with?

Oof - forgot to mention that I do have autologin configured on gdm 😀

This reply isn’t going to be helpful to OP, but thought I might add context for others passing by.

I’m using Arch Linux with LUKS encryption and gdm. As long as my user’s password is the same as the LUKS password, I only ever type my password in once.

Just saying that a MacOS-like convenience is definitely possible on Linux.

Hmm, I feel like there’s some nuances around Hyprland (and it’s kind of window managers) that makes having a place for discussion valuable.

• Plugin development discussions
• Configuration recipes and troubleshooting (Configs for tiling wm’s often are like 500-line software projects)
• …and sometimes its just fun to chat with like-minded people who share a similar philosophy on the tools they use on their computers

I’m not a hyprland user, but I find it valuable to lurk around SwayWM communities on Discord and Reddit.
