Will be doing a fresh install on an old laptop in the near future and was considering trying wayland.

Can you recommend a decent & light window manager & terminal emulator?

I’ve played around with wayland but always ended up back on xorg, was gonna give it another shot.

    stacking wm -> wayfire

    tiling wm -> sway [corrected, i don’t know what was going through my mind]

    terminal emulator -> alacritty or foot

      Sway is a tiling wm and wayfire looks like a floating wm to me. I don’t know what a „stacking“ wm is, but afaik you can stack in sway.
