@BrodieOnLinux Lazyness and not wanting to uproot my whole system. I have #DWM running on #archLinux (btw) and have an irrational fear of things going wrong if I start using #wayland, especially because I'm running on nVidia. I however have a separate disk which is formatted to ext4 and has a barebones Arch installation on it which I plan to use as a test bed to install Wayland on... some time in the future.
@peppe Well, #dwm is a window manager. Then there's #dwl, which is a #wayland #compositor, trying to do "functionally the same" as dwm. My point is, it has to implement a lot more stuff to do so.
My favorite window manager is #fvwm (or now #fvwm3), and as far as I know, its main developer was looking into wayland and currently doesn't have any concrete plans to work on that ... and I can perfectly understand. 
Como es #ViernesDeEscritorio, pero yo sigo con mi mismo #dwm, en vez de una imagen, os pongo un video, para ser algo más original. #archlinux
Got a question for the #fediverse :
Those of you who use tiling window managers (like i3, dwm, xmonad, etc)
How do you handle, say, a giant curved monitor? Seems mad to have a terminal plastered across a 49" curved monitor. Can you split the monitor into "screens"? Is X Windows up to the task? (Please, no suggestions for Wayland.. it's not really complete yet)
Many thanks!
When Ian mentions these being "just given away" by the US govt post #ww1...he means exactly that. The US had such a large stockpile of these it was decided to simply give them away as a "bonus" to random retired federal employees/retired teachers/service workers and veterans groups. It was not uncommon for a large wooden box to show up on your front door unannounced as a "retirement bonus" from uncle sam. (ski) #MG08 #DWM #ForgottenWeapons #Spandau

@JustineSmithies I used #dwm on X. When I moved to wayland, #dwl wasn't very good. Found #riverwm and didn't look back. With river changing in the future, I tried dwl again. It's in a good state. I only use a few more patches compared to dwm. Only issue was making a couple changes to shiftview/pertag patches since I'm also using the bar patch. swallow/namedscratchpads also had to sort the order in rules.
For warpcursor, you can also use wlrctl instead of the patch.

Can we stop talking about DEI hires & start talking about dumb white man hires? #DWM #DumbWhiteMan
I managed to move to #AwesomeWM from #dwm, after discovering that #suckless folks are a bunch of nazis.
Also, I had some stability issues that with all the C patching were hard to debug.
I gotta say dwm's workflow and defaults are just great, though, and I HAD to replicate most of it in Awesome.
It's not a minimalistic wm, it has so many features by default but such a great documentation though.
The problem is that I'm definitely not a fan of #lua, but I'll take it over nazis anytime. #linux
Since desktop environments can always change and many new releases came out since last year, I would like to know which desktop environment you currently use?
#gnome #kdeplasma #xfce4 #cinnamondesktop #matedesktop #budgiedesktop #lxqt #linuxdesktop #linux #freebsd #openbsd #netbsd #i3wm #bspwm #xmonad #dwm #fvwm #qtile #wayland #xorg
* Multiple choices possible
As I mentioned, here is a quick write up with wiki-links on how to setup a core OpenBSD system and then install DWM on top:

As exciting as the news is about #StevenMoffat's return to #DoctorWho is, considering the man's record and the recent #DWM poll where he took in half of the top 10 fan favorite episodes, I can't help but fear for the show's longevity. We're hitting 20 years of the 80s boys club of Doctor Who fans calling the shots,
I could really go for some new writers who haven't written for the show.

That is #linux
NO #LINUX IS MUCH MORE!!!!
It is all those choices which the above systems block you from having.
