Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Is Linux More Customizable Than Windows?
Yup. Here is an example list of things you can swap around. https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland
- Wayland section in site
-
Moving from Plasma, to Sway, some
You didn't say whether your current config is based on X or Wayland therefore two links with Wayland applications. Are we Wsyland yet and awesome wayland
- When do you think you will switch to Wayland?
-
Wayland Protocol Finally Ready for Fractional Scaling
plenty others of all sorts.
> auto keyboard/mouse scripting with xdotool
There's a few tools for this: https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland#tools
> not have unnecessary mouse/keyboard to monitor delay
There's none that I can notice. Mice cursor are rendered with hardware support

With rise of wayland, are simpler window managers dying?
Here's one of many forks of an awesome-wayland repository that lists what's going on: https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland
- What are Wayland-native applications and where can I find them?
-
Please do not ship work in progress to users: An open letter from developers to the wider Linux community
customization isn't killed, it just takes time to adapt to a new protocol. check out all the stuff you can do with wayland
- Is there a place to read about recommended SwayWM builds?
-
Krohnkite still does not work in Wayland, and it has not been updated in more than a year. Any alternatives? Is it Kwin's fault?
More specifically, see: awesome-wayland and arewewaylandyet. Sway-addons also has interesting stuff in it, like wl-clipboard which is mostly compatible with Klipper.

X11 is dead, switch to Wayland
I am personally waiting for Waymonad. https://github.com/waymonad/waymonad

With rise of wayland, are simpler window managers dying?
It takes time, but the teams behind wlroots etc are doing good work to make sure that wms managed by smaller teams can exist. There are even clones for your specific wm on wayland. See https://github.com/waymonad/waymonad
-
switching from awesomewm to a wayland compositor
In addition, there was the last commit in 2019. Thus, it can be assumed that the project is dead and therefore nothing will change on the current state. And according to https://github.com/waymonad/waymonad/issues/44, there are probably not enough people who would actively participate in a fork.

I was in a stream and I realized what is still lacking from Linux Gaming to be mainstream
Ideally xmonad would be ported/xmonad devs would be working on waymonad, but I doubt it will happen. Waymonad seems to be abandoned.
-
Cool Desktops Don’t Change
Nice to see Qtile on Wayland. But I'm personally waiting for xmonad on Wayland.
https://github.com/waymonad/waymonad
-
A tiling desktop environment is now available for Bullseye
I wouldn't count on it, as Waymonad has not seen active development since 2019 and the Haskell bindings to wlroots have not been updated since 2019 as well. There is a fork, but it has not been active since September 2021. Also, it was based on wlroots, not sway.
-
How hard would it be to make my own window manager?
That's what the XMonad fans are using: https://github.com/waymonad/waymonad lets you write your Wayland compositor in Haskell, is analogy to the way XMonad lets you write your X window manager in Haskell.
-
I would not give up haskell for hiring purposes. I think it will exponentialy rise through the roof in a year or two [2012]
Unfortunately it was abandoned https://github.com/waymonad/waymonad/issues/44
- Is there a successful Wayand wm that is close to xmonad?
-
Little advice, please.
regarding keeping an interest, waymonad has been dead for something like two and a half years but according to startrack it's still getting people giving him stars so i don't think you should worry about it.
