You can use window managers instead of DEs. While I prefer DEs because how much features they have you may not need these features

Instructions unclear, installed sway and 50 utilities for it.

smh get real, install Hyprland and 50 utilities for it (30 of those are sway utilities)

But at least you don't need to use a stupidly long argument to start it (I know both don't really have support but sway runs it in your face even more than normal) because you can't quite be as choosy with laptops as you can be with desktops....

I haven't had laptop-related issues on either

well, i'm not. that's for sure. also i like the freedom of choice at every login as the spaghetti monster intended

This is the way.

Install tiling wm, because I can't without anymore. Install a DE, because I actually like the discoverability of graphical settings programs.
