Sadly it's bound to X11. The alternative for me was to migrate to sway[1] to have a similar environment in wayland. [1] - https://github.com/swaywm/sway/
since sway and i3 are pretty much interoperable, I see no problems there.

#12I'll never understand why every dev doesn't use tiling wms. Such a free productivity and happiness win.

It greatly annoys me that wayland still doesn't have any solutions for synergy/barrier type software. I depend on it daily for using my desktop and laptop and it's tedious to make the switch as it currently is.
I've been meaning to try out barrier. How do you like it? Is it responsive/fast? I had synergy running across linux/mac machines a number of years ago and it wasn't super reliable back then..
I have been using synergy for 6 or 7 years. Barrier the past year. It works reliably, more so then synergy, and I'm typing this reply through barrier right now :) It also fixes a few quirks I had like xorg screen changes wasn't reflected in synergy and it would start having weird boundaries.

#14If you really dig tiling window managers but you're running on macOS, check out Amethyst.

Sadly Sway is bound to wayland.
Wayland has a bad case of security at the cost of usability. They've been adding protocols here and there but there are still obvious things missing. Last time I checked it wasn't even possible to create something like xdotool without relying on some nasty hacks.

#16If anyone’s looking to replicate this on OSX, check out yabai[0].
I have also been using skhrdc (same maintainer I believe) for key bindings and it’s an absolute blast.

#17https://regolith-linux.org for Ubuntu based on i3 is fantastic

And sway does not do Nvidia.

I made a program called rkvm which works on a level below display servers (works with uinput directly) and thus doesn't suffer from these problems. Currently, it only supports Linux and Windows, where only client support is implemented on Windows, but it works well for my use case.
