By what measure is i3 bloated out of interest?

> incomplete like DWM or is bloated like i3. It has less LOC than DWM too which is a plus.

Can you elaborate on this?

Why? Especially as an end user.

A small suggestion regarding framing, you might find yourself getting a friendlier welcome if instead of putting other software down, you instead highlight why yours is good. For example, instead of saying i3 is bloated, you could say your project is more lightweight than i3. Similarly, instead of saying DWM is incomplete, you can say yours is more feature complete than DWM. It might feel like a small difference, but attitudes and first impressions matter, especially as you can see from the other comments in this thread. You don't have to put others down to lift yourself up.

Congratulations on the project! This is an impressive feat at any age. Personally, I love how you found your own balance between extreme minimalism and a useful set of features, arriving at a solution that is indeed below 2k lines of C code. That kind of thinking is not a quality every software developer has, and you could make a career out of it if you decide to work professionally in this field.

Oh, nice I didn't know about hyprland as an option on Wayland. I (just yesterday) installed and started using swaywm (Wayland fork of i3). I have to say that so far I really like the change.

MacOS without Rectangle is the most tediously frustrating bullshit. I really hate how much time is spent fidgeting and sorting windows. Windows isn't much better but at least it's Rectangle-like out of the box.
