I only found this thread because
@Ferryman and
@prollyanotherlurker mentioned Drew as the maintainer of Sway over in the Linux thread.
Drew DeVault has single handedly put me off of using or recommending Wayland for the foreseeable future. When I do consider it again, I'll definitely look into Hyprland rather than Sway. Even though I've use i3 for years, and generally prefer software written in C.
Drew is a boil on the back of Open Source software, and I am glad to know to avoid his retardation. He definitely strikes me as a person who spends too much time online rather than with those around him.
