Thanks for the honorable mention of Manjaro Sway edition! I always look a little towards nix, void an Solus too, but loosing the aur would be to big of a sacrifice for me.

Qt Wayland: support for surviving a compositor crash was merged
afair ChromeOS do implement it, harder to find the commit but also know Arcan mentioned elsewhere in this thread added it quite a while ago https://github.com/letoram/arcan/commit/d547c55565a848946422e24eee324c8ed091ff15

not the biggest Xorg fan, but it isn't all sunshine and rainbows in the promised Wayland.
I managed to find this one in my history: Arcan it does has a cool name ngl, I never tried it though

Wayland blows ass and mostly functions as a launcher for x.org processes. Nobody needs, wants or asked for Wayland. It's nobody's fault but the assholes at FreeDesktop
Lol not arcan

SDL Tries Again To Prefer Wayland Over X11
Arcan is a decent contender for an actual way forward (and like PipeWire replacing PulseAudio, Arcan natively supports X11 and Wayland clients)
What are some alternatives?
When comparing manjaro-sway and arcan you can also consider the following projects:
wayfire - A modular and extensible wayland compositor
hello-wayland - A hello world Wayland client (mirror)
desktop-settings - forked desktop settings with sway profile
waybox - An openbox clone on Wayland (WIP)
Waybar - Highly customizable Wayland bar for Sway and Wlroots based compositors. :v: :tada:
openbsd-wip - OpenBSD work in progress ports
sddm - QML based X11 and Wayland display manager
ydotool - Generic command-line automation tool (no X!)
labwc - A Wayland window-stacking compositor
rdrview - Firefox Reader View as a command line tool
wayland-protocols - Wayland protocol development (mirror)
glaucus - A simple and lightweight Linux® distribution based on musl libc and toybox
