One thing that I've found that I like is having my waybar not normally visible. When I need to glance at the bar, I can just hold the Sway modifier key to make it temporarily show up.

in ~/.config/sway/config:

bar {
    swaybar_command waybar
    mode hide
}

More screen space for whatever I'm actually doing. If something is so critical that it needs to grab my attention (e.g. battery low on a laptop) then I have it set up to send a message to the notification manager.
