Niri – A scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor

I used to feel the same way, but I found that I like the animations in Niri. It helps me to keep a mental model of where everything is located in the infinite strip.

I did change the settings to speed them up significantly, which I think is a good middle ground.

I notice that with niri even people who have never seen tiling WMs instantly 'get' it. I think the animations are a large part of that.
