Maybe, not sure how musl compares to glibc. I quite like Runit and xbps though so I don't feel like I'm in a rush.

Yeah, I think Hikari combines the best of both. In the rare cases I need to tile, it has that capability but in most cases I have 1-2 windows and find it easier to work with them when the windows are smaller.

Configuration is straight forward with a file but you won't be able to use it without keybindings.
