I bought an AMD gpu to use sway and it is still broken, don't use sway.
Broken in what way? I only used it a short while years ago and didn't notice anything.
Using Niri now on an AMD GPU with great success, it's working great. Using it for work, gaming, everything I did with i3 and Hyprland before it.
Also using the yuzu works (eden and citron) performance is awful, like half the FPS I used to get on i3wm, this also happens in hyprland but not in plasma, apparently this is because the two window managers lack fifo v1 (hyprland did add it a few months ago, I need to check if it works better now).
