Yeah, lack of XWayland support has been an issue for me. Versioning the config API is something I’ve been considering, or at least ensuring backwards compatibility.
I’d be interested in other ideas or pain points you’ve experienced. Not to suggest I’ll ever have something production-grade, but my hope is to get to a point that I have a working daily driver and potentially share it with others.
There’s also Strata, Niri, and to some extent Cosmic. My problem has been that they tend to be very opinionated and limited in the customization of the layouts. Having used XMonad for a long time, I may be a bit spoiled in that regard…
I do think there’s a middle ground for configuration without requiring programming skills, which can be off-putting for many users. After all, most layouts are just a combination of rows and columns. 😛
I actually started working on one a few weeks ago. It’s amazing how easy it was to get the basics working. Still a long way to go, but it’s a fun project in the meantime and hopefully can result in something that supports my desired flow.
In a similar vein, I’ve seen a lot of auto moderator implementations created. If instead of creating yet another project, people started contributing to existing ones we’d have a good core set of functionality that could be shared across instances. Competing implementations are fine, but at some point the efforts get spread so thin that progress is limited.

Squirt me some tunes, bro!
Not quite what you’re looking for, but I use the CachyOS kernel on Arch. Mainly because it’s optimized for the architecture. Not sure if there’s actually any real performance benefit…
Sorry about that, there were some upload restrictions. See the HQ link for the full resolution.
Honestly, I can’t really tell the difference between Jellyseer and Reiverr. It may be that I don’t use them enough, but it really seems like they provide the same information in slightly different ways.
So White castle doesn’t count as a burger? 🤔
I started with Jellyseer and later learned about Reiverr. Haven’t settled on which one I like more yet. They both provide basically the same information but in different ways.
The left thumb is pretty similar to the Kinesis Advantage which I’ve used for years. No issues with comfort there!
The layout is a 5x6 full matrix. Wylderbuilds has the option to print with it, but I think the software used to generate the model supports it as well.
It’s the PMW3389. Following Wylderbuilds’ trackball guide I soldered a header onto it to make it easier to connect.
Yup! My thumb rests on the enter key but can still use the trackball without triggering it. I do wish there was a little more space between those two keys but otherwise it’s fine.
No issue with the right thumb keys. I do think it might be possible to squeeze one more key in, but would be a bit of a design challenge.
I can easily reach all of them comfortably. Depending on the key, I use different parts of the thumb to hit it. For example, space uses the inside of the thumb whereas enter is closer to the pad on my hand.
My main motivator was to stop having to take my hand off the keyboard to use the mouse. It’s inefficient and ultimately I was worried I was developing RSI in my shoulder. The alternative would be to have keyboard navigation everywhere but that’s not always feasible.
The mouse buttons are the arrows on the left thumb. I was worried putting them on the same thumb for click and drag actions. They’re layered for secondary buttons too, so <-||- is Left or when the layer is activated Backward and -||-> is Right or Forward.
The arrows on the right are also layered with PgUp or Home and PgDn or End.
Haven’t tried it yet. The plan going in was to try and ditch the mouse entirely. It may take some tweaks and remapping but I hope to make it work!
Thanks! I knew it was a bit ambitious going in but figured it’d be worth it if I managed to pull it off.
