I’m running the same setup. I migrated from Mint. I had just a few headaches, mostly due to some multi-boot configuration confusion. I learned a lot by fixing those and now it’s a solid setup.
I’m loving having a much lighter weight PID1!
Please do post back with how Sway turned out.
Nvidia drivers have worked fine for me on Mint, Parrot, and Artix. The only downside is they are pretty bloated and want to be loaded early in the boot process, so it adds several seconds to the initramfs load.
I haven’t tried compiling the image without them, mostly because it’s only a few seconds on boot and I don’t enjoy repairing broken boot images.
