I’ll need to give tiling another try, I started using alpha 5 back in January and there were some pretty nasty bugs in tiling mode back then that made me think maybe a memory leak or something. After 15-20 minutes performance would get horrible until switching back to floating, though I’m fuzzy on the details.
Is there any capability to leave an open space? Honestly, I like tiling more for the orderliness above and beyond snapping than the dynamism. Aaaaaand that’s reminding me why I was looking at building out a LabWC environment, it has configurable snap zones.
I was using a few of the alphas like a year ago and I enjoyed it. Then I didn’t. seemed like with each new release it just got worse. slower, more bugs, etc.
Yesterday I decided to finally try the beta and…it’s good. It’s really good. I’m going to switch from Niri to it. I didn’t have to change ANY keybind on it cause they were all just there by default. The tiling works great, love the ease of navigation between monitors. the hot key to tile or not is great. It’s in a really good spot right now.
Yeah try it again now, I noticed how tiling seemed a bit laggy in the beginning but that has improved. I run the latest git version available in the arch repos.
Thanks, I’ll have to sit my ass at my desk so I can try it again. I wonder if there’s much delta between what you’re using and the beta I’m on from Extra. Though it does look like there are some new betas in Extra-Testing.

Probably not that much. The beta is really new.
