FVWM is/was great. I started using more or less when it started and I've used it as recently as 2022 on some custom embedded "carputer" type devices. Totally themeable/strippable/placeable.
Would like to see a #wayland version but... probably won't happen.
Had a stint of using #afterstep for a number of years. On an Intel Pentium dual P90 homebuilt. Ha!

I guess people hating #Wayland are the same folks that hate #SystemD or even #PipeWire whilst refusing to #DoBetter themselves:
#Toxic #Neighsayers that refuse to acknowledge that #Xorg, #SystemVinit and #ALSA / #OSS are bad.
Instead they create redundant work that noone cares and that only.pulls resources from improving mainlike #Linux.
Or does anyone use #Devuan in any busoness-critical applicationm?
Looks like @serebit released #Waycheck 1.0.0 today. Naturally, that means it should be *everywhere* for your #Wayland checking needs! 😉
