Hey folks,
remember the post that was made a few months ago about an infinite canvas/scrollable WM? Here we have the stable release of a (onedirectional) scrollable one inspired by gnome’s PaperWM.
Aaaand… …it’s written in Rust!

But this is what I mean. It can still show the same amount of screen space as scrolling horizontally so there’s no difference between the two options there, but it feels more natural to go up/down compared to left/right to access different content/windows.
That’s just an image gallery. Applications can feel much different. There’s a reason left-right tiling/snapping is much more popular than up-downs. You’d have to scroll down considerably more to grasp the content.
I can see what you mean, and I get your argument, but personally I still feel that horizontal scrolling suits this kind of desktop navigation better.
