I just run it from terminal after logging in

Works! Thank you, dude!

  1. echo $SWAYSOCK -> /run/user/1000/sway-ipc.1000.913.sock
  2. echo $GDMSESSION outputs nothing
  3. echo $XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP outputs nothing
  4. echo $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP outputs nothing
  5. env | grep -i sway -> I3SOCK=/run/user/1000/sway-ipc.1000.913.sock SWAYSOCK=/run/user/1000/sway-ipc.1000.913.sock

Also swaymsg -v -> swaymsg version 1.0

which swaymsg -> /usr/bin/swaymsg

It was being called from command line. I’ll check if current master works within next 2 days.
