## Configuration
I use [sway](https://swaywm.org) as my window manager, this time I decided to try a display manager aswell which I usually dont bother with and just type `sway` after login, and went for [lemurs](https://github.com/coastalwhite/lemurs), a lightweight TUI dm written in Rust.

I also use the [swaylock-effecs](https://github.com/mortie/swaylock-effects) fork of swaylock, though I just use the image option without any effects because of how long it takes to compute the gaussean blur.
I then configured `logind` to ignore accidental short pressed to the power button, which happens frequently enough for the default (shutting down) to become annoying, and suspend when the lid is closed:
```
# /etc/systemd/logind.conf

HandlePowerKey=ignore
HandlePowerKeyLongPress=poweroff
HandleLidSwitch=suspend
HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=suspend
```
Since I dont use a common display manager which automatically runs XDG autorun .desktop entries, I start libinput-gestures in my sway config:
