There are more traditional window manager type compositor, you might be able to find something more to your tastes in this list...

As a happy Openbox user, I'm planning on trying Waybox first I think. Waiting for the next Debian release though.

But it also allows for querying the capabilities of the compositor with versioning, making extensions possible. There was a recent Show HN submission with this site: https://wayland.app/protocols/
The not-yet-core extensions doesn’t create fragmentation, actually there is a decent cooperation behind the 3-4 major compositor “backends” on everything, and ultimately they all settle on the same thing. Also, it’s a bit generous to say that fragmentation is somehow the fault of Wayland, when it has always been a problem in linux desktops.
Also, why do you think adding screen recording into wayland would have been great? It is a complex problem with audio syncing, not-necessarily display-related programs accessing streams and the like, so it seems relevant only on a surface level. Pipewire is the good layer to handle it. And prebaking some API without pipewire being ready would have been just stupid. It is/will be supported everywhere (there is a portal frontend already for gnome, sway and I believe plasma as well).
