  They all suck. I use GNOME, KDE is terribly buggy, I'd like to use Sway but it's still shit with hidpi screens (because of a missing feature in xwayland, go figure. KDE and GNOME have a hacky workaround, not Sway because no one of its devs has a screen with more than 96 dpi apparently) In fact, tiled WMs are 90s tech, I want scrollable tiling WMs, and they are niche or pretty much unknown.

I have been using Linux full time since 1999, yet I keep hearing people trying to convince me whatever crap we had before Mozilla WebRender on Wayland was hardware acceleration. Having VLC use VDPAU when opening media files is not full desktop hardware acceleration. It has taken until Wayland to be able to move and resize windows without artefacts and lag. Stuff Windows and macOS have had since 2010. Let alone accelerated rendering of web pages and YouTube.
