Description Violet Purcell 2023-12-05 17:49:15 UTC

Since Sway 1.8, there has been support for using CAP_SYS_NICE to request SCHED_RR: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/pull/6994. This is already done by other distros such as arch (https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/commit/36e2bebfa1405d07c5497b522ffbff4ecd51bcd2), and it would be nice to have (potentially controlled by a use flag?).
