I think the GNOME designers are incompetent

Fvwm3 1.0.3 release!
Thomas recently finished version 1.0.3! Some major changes include: * perllib: remove references to Tk #502 (ThomasAdam) * Remove xpmroot link. #495 (somiaj) * Remove FvwmConsoleC.pl front-end #379 (slazav) * New DesktopConfiguration mode: shared which mimiks how desktops are handled by other WMs such as Xmonad or Spectrwm in that desks are shared across all attached monitors. * Panframe support has been reworked which means switching between pages with the mouse on monitor edges should now work as expected. * Lots of fixes to plug memory-leaks. Check it out here!

What is objectively the best window manager?
I use sdorfehs, which is a fork of ratpoison.

[sdorfehs] netbsd
No, sdorfehs has been around for a couple of years. It's a tiling wm descended from ratpoison & primarily uses prefixed/modal key bindings for most actions. It does not support mouse actions or floating windows and that's just the way I like it 👌
