Sway (and most other tiling) WMs have the same behaviour; i.e., each monitor has its own unique set of workspaces instead of one workspace being shared across monitors. Workspaces not being persistent also messed with me, I have eight workspaces all divvied up for exact purposes and sometimes the ones inbetween are empty.

I use labwc currently which has the ideal workspace behaviour (one workspace shared).

right, those are the two ways.

and how does niri do it? a workspace is shared among all monitor, or it's one workspace per monitor?
