I'm currently using a fully vibe-coded, personal River window manager that works just how I want it to. I switched to it after I realized I couldn't do everything I wanted in Hyprland (e.g. tile windows to equal areas instead of BSP by default).

Simple example of how impactful this separation has been for me.

(I'm an ex i3/now sway user and hy3 is the only way I can bear using hyprland)

I encountered similar setbacks with hyprland (https://github.com/ArikRahman/hydenix), and I eventually wound up preferring scrollable tiling managers. I restarted from scratch with niri, and have found it to be a stable platform to develop against. Here's my current dotfiles (https://github.com/ArikRahman/dotfiles)
BSP?
