Asahi Linux To Users: Please Stop Using X.Org
I'd like to, but I use the Awesome Window Manager, and there is currently no direct equivalent in Wayland at this time. I was holding out for Way Cooler, but unfortunately, it had stopped development 4 years ago.

help me choose a wm
Just fyi, river is nothing like awesome, it's like bspwm. There was an attempt to make an awesome clone for wayland but it's no longer under development. Also, though it's not tiling, for completeness there's also labwc which is a wayland clone of openbox.

I was in a stream and I realized what is still lacking from Linux Gaming to be mainstream
And way-cooler(awesome wayland), is archived and not worked on anymore.

Wayland rewrite fundraiser?
There have been discussions about porting to Wayland on the Discord before and there was a project called (waycooler)[https://github.com/way-cooler/way-cooler] that attempted to do this. As far as I can tell, you are right in that it would be a serious undertaking, but I would ask on the Discord if you're interested in setting up some kind of fundraiser.

NVIDIA Proposes Mesa Patches To Support Alternative GBM Back-Ends
Compositors have to be specifically written for Wayland. Awesome/Qtile only support X11 but they could be re-written using a framework like wlroots (somebody tried to make an Awesome clone called Way Cooler but development eventually stalled).

Wayland breaks your bad software
I've been wanting to try http://hyprland.org/, but since plasma gets me far enough and provides a working taskbar (wifi, sound, bluetooth, mount, clipboard) and virtual desktops on which I end up opening just firefox and emacs I haven't really given it a chance.

Hyprland Crash Course
Hyprland builds using a pinned commit of wlroots instead of a tagged release because wlroots release schedule is too slow for Hyprland's development [0]
This turns into a problem for maintainers because many distributions refuse to ship non tagged versions of software
Hyprland used to depend on wlroots-git, but when it made the switch to use specific pinned commits a lot more distributions started to package it [1], but some still refuse to do so such as Debian.

Improving cursor rendering on Wayland
I have Hyprland a try some weeks/months ago, and seemingly it had a video memory leak where after some hours of usage, it ended up taking more than 5GB of VRAM, with no signs of slowing down.
I found one issue (https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/1504) mentioning something similar, but it was closed and I was still experiencing the same issue, so not sure what's going on.
Gnome3 doesn't manifest the same issue, so worth checking out if it happens to you if you're curious about moving from Gnome to Hyprland.

RubyWM – an X11 window manager in pure Ruby
I've been an X11 holdout since forever, but after nvidia proprietary drivers broke for the millionth time on a system upgrade, I switched over to Nouveau and the "Hyprland" tiling compositor on Wayland. It's the only setup that felt worth the upgrade to me. Setup was easy, animations are very slick (scroll down on the link below for a sample), and I've had no bugs or quirks. Highly recommend checking it out if you're bored or curious.

Is there any transparent themes for GTK 2 or QT?
I did some research as far as I know there isn't really a way for it to have a transparent window but not transparent text although I found this, basically change the opacity of the window/program. You can also set active and inactive opacity on the window if that's any help.

Regular package vs git package
Therefore I am considering switching to hyprland-nvidia-git, but when I look at its AUR page (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/hyprland-nvidia-git) it says 0.31 as the version, whereas the latest version is 0.32 (https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/releases). I thought the git package would be cutting edge "automatically", but perhaps I'm missing something...?
