Tiv will handle that on the tty just fine.

I also want to have a clicky mechanical keyboard! /s

For those who don’t understand: cage is a kiosk wayland window manager, which means it only runs one program in the foreground and in fullscreen.

foot is a graphical terminal emulator.

So the joke here is to run a terminal emulator in fullscreen and kiosk mode on a wayland wm from tty, which, at first sight, looks exactly the same as just tty. So you use wayland for a lookalike tty session, which is a nod at OP’s image which states you wouldn’t run a tty on x or wayland.

(But cage+foot has mouse support, nice fonts, can launch graphical programs, etc., and has itself established as a kind of rescue shell for tty-less kernel distributions)

watches wayland have a stroke on a kiosk

Valve be like: Jo we make like a wayland compositor, ya’now?, and it will be like super performance oriented for games ‘n stuff, ya’now?, and have dis super bleedin’ edge hdr pipeline, ya’now?, and then it will only support xwayland, ya’now?, dude why ya leavin’?
