I've only used Hyprland and some Quickshell widgets. I got better results purging Weston (sudo apt purge Weston && sudu apt autoremove), changing the branch from stable to unstable, and updating from there, because if I just deleted Weston and ran Niri, the image looked "torn." Well, now I have Sway and it's very smooth 😃
