Linux Gaming

I've been switching between the two a lot lately, primarily tweaking "sway" and "spectrwm" Xorg generally uses less RAM and has way more options as far as window managers go, but I like how Xwayland uses the actual names from the /sys/class/drm/card*-* for the screen names (multiscreen randr stuff), although in Xorg my lid-switching script is considerably simpler since it uses xset for DPMS. There's a reason X11 has been around for so long I guess. I mean I just discovered a window-manager agnostic way of setting my media keys using xbindkeys (which is nice because spectrwm's custom action bindings are bugged and need a reload after every fresh start), and even compton isn't so bad once you learn to use it properly (it was ignoring the documented user config path ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯). I mean don't get me wrong, it's cool as hell that you can literally run "sway" from the command-line, and set the bg and screen positions in a single config line, or that setting transparency in the "foot" terminal is also a single simple setting, but the complexity of Xorg isn't always a bug..
