Niri is so so good
How does it compare to hyprland in it's current state regarding stability, features and support?
Overall I would say it is more stable and less features than Hyprland. And recently it has Waybar modules so you can have a complete status bar. Personally would prefer Niri over Hyprland on a laptop if I do not plan on connecting monitors. The issue I had is that there are too many actions available to move windows including across monitors and setting simple keybinds for all of those becomes a problem. It just did not work for me as I use two monitors.
Not at all, aside that it tiles.
of course I could have RTFM'd but it's really weird that it doesn't set DRM itself. so if you think you'll get any kind of sensible default on first boot ... well. nope you get nothing not even TTYs to fix it
Is this relevant when using a login manager?
my experience was with sddm
Wow, this is pretty good! I might have to finally ditch sway.
