I don't have a single complaint with Niri—defintely not around functionality—so I'll stick with what I have, I think.

I too am exceptionally happy with Niri. Could you expand on your comment around functionality and the basic features you're talking about?

my squinting eyes read this as mangrown

Mango uses wlroots as underlying wayland compositor library and has been established for almost a decade now thanks to sway. Niri is using a new universal rust-based library (smithay), which doesnt implement all wayland extensions yet, but it get better all the time. background-effects blur for example was added in the last months!

> HDR Support added 4 months ago

Wow! This is actually enough for me to try it. Given that the only tiling wm on wayland with HDR support was Hyprland, which is backed by DHH, I was left feeling a bit sour about this.
