Swaylock works fine for me. But i prefer something that has password field; can be asterisks or dots, it doesnt matter. The point is if i make a mistake when typing, i can delete a word and correct it, instead of forcing a wrong unlock and try again.
Anything like that and also includes the session lock v1 protocol for Wayland?
DankMaterialShell’s screenlocker is the only one I know that has the normal input box. But I don’t know if there is a way to install/use it standalone. I think you have to pull in the entire dms-shell package. That pulls in quickshell and it’s dependencies at the very least.
