:I fixed the issue with sway running as root. At least I think, I haven't tested if that can work. I don't have a opinion if the section should be removed. A link to the [https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/OpenRC/User_services OpenRC user services wik] might be appropriate.

Video and input groups
Please don't revert edits and add these groups again. Being a member of these groups is not required and is actively discouraged by upstream. WhyNotHugo (talk) 14:27, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
- So seatd also allows not using these groups? Sorry, I didn't know that. Sertonix (talk) 15:24, 4 November 2023 (UTC)
- I can confirm that sway starts fine using the directions on the current revision of the wiki using seatd. No users were added to video or input group.
- I didn't have luck with elogind, but didn't mess with it much. –zcrayfish (talk•contribs•send email) 11:51, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
Proposal to remove the "Start as a service" section.
I for one think this section should be replaced by a section instructing users to start sway with their .profile.
Looks to me that the openrc service as written on the page now starts it as root. Would be a lot better from a security standpoint if it was started as a regular user. Thoughts?
