considering that gnome just deprecated X11, i have a weird feeling that my life is about to get even harder and more painful, unless I choose to conform to one of the mainstream ideal linux GUIs

wayland will be the thing which finally kills all the small WMs that still remain. I consider that to be a cultural disaster.

@domi it's sad. But we can't pretend to have everything working like in the 90's forever. Sometimes it's necessary to break a egg to make a omelette.

However, you can keep running X11 apps over Wayland, as there is a X11 server that runs over Wayland.... Even window managers.

PD: I say this as a person that likes sometimes to play with old X11 wms
