minus-squareLichbaneLB@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoFor anyone else wondering, this is a X11 vs Wayland meme - i.e. desktop window managers. Yeah.
minus-squareTurboWafflz@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoNeither of them are window managers, they are windowing systems. A window manager is the part that actually lets you move around windows and draws the borders and stuff, like kwin, mutter, xfwm, i3, etc

minus-squareglibg10b@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 year agoNo, Wayland is just a protocol, and the things that implement it are compositors, not WMs Also, there’s no such thing as a DWM, except for the WM called dwm
