It is all because of fish shell. I had the same problem. If you set fish shell as default with this command: chsh -s $(which fish) you will need to get to TTY (press Ctrl+alt+F2 or F3) and type this command: /usr/bin/chsh -s /bin/bash
Thank you @mn-xd you just saved my life !
Lesson: Don't use fish as your login shell. It's just an interactive shell.
Detailed Description
After installing snapd, Brave browser, Discord, Fish Shell, and updating with yay -Syu, I am no longer able to login to my computer on BSPWM or OpenBox. I type my password, the screen goes black, and the login screen pops up again. After searching through all solutions given on GitHub, Reddit, and various other forums, the problem persists, but now when I login with the correct password it says Login Failed. I can login to either WM as Root, but I get a black screen (nitrogen is an empty box when I open it) with a default right click menu (in OpenBox), no polybar, and none of the hotkeys are working.
