I guess I can either set the laptop to lowdpi and deal
or set up Wayland and Sway and uh
that sounds like pain
full marks to Sway – they get as close to a drop-in replacement for i3 as possible. I expected lots of config changes, but the only things I had to touch were things they can't change (have to set up some input and output config, changed startup etc).
super impressive and rare to see something live up to the drop-in replacement claim, very cool
