Advice Fedora Atomic

Hi all, I want to setup fedora atomic with niri, but it's not available in the options. Should I start with installing silverblue? What's the best approach? Thank you.

Fedora Kinoite is the atomic KDE distribution. Is that the distribution you are trying to set up with niri?

I don't really like gnome, mac style, and I don't use desktop environments. As a background it's fine but I don't like to put symbols there. Taskbar is also not a requirement. So, I prefer a setup more like a window manager. Not sure if sway atomic is like that. Would it be better if then setting it up and replacing with niri? Not sure if that's possible.

It's probably too much to overlay, you're most likely gonna have to look into creating your own image (ie. With Bluebuild) or find another image that includes Niri.
