I would replace the storage widget in the panel for a RAM one. I think it would be more useful. Other than that very good but minus 1 point for deleted. 8.5/10. I love the recent attention to retro stuff.

looks more like SwayFX to me ;)

I can assure you this is just regular Sway. Thanks, though!

so the transparency is not a sway feature but the terminal's?

Yep! Just put the following in your foot.ini:

[colors]
alpha=0.8 # or whatever value between 0 and 1 you want

How is sway compared to Hyprland?

I use hyprland on endeavour and found I got too many errors and things weren't working.

I'm running nixos now and have gotten use to how the distor works.

Is sway good? I enjoyed the tiling of Hyprland.

Sway is good. It's really just i3 on Wayland. I've never used Hyprland myself, though.
