    Love it, I’ve stopped using bars as well and generally feel better without the clutter.

      Are there any ncurces-based programs that can show the info I have usually in a bar and can live in a terminal?

        Yeah, I personally use tmux to display battery information (the only thing I need) in my terminal.

        You could try configure a fetch program, like fastfetch. For network management I use the nmtui binary that comes bundled in with network manager. I know there is bluetui for bluetooth and wiremix for a basic pipewire audio mixer, but I don’t know about anything else.

          I guess, it comes down to: What do I really need to be visible and configurable in one terminal page.

    Niri is a Wayland compositor, not a window manager

      It’s both. Wayland is meant to be implemented in such way that the compositor is also the window manager. River is a counter example where the team decided to make an extension and decouple the compositor fron the window manager. That said niri is just a standard wayland window manager.

        It does both jobs but they’re typically referred to as compositors. See basically any description of any project (including niri). Additionally it’s confusing because then people have to lookup if it’s X or Wayland when we have very obvious terms that we can use to distinguish implicitly
