After getting a comment from the creator of kanata (an awesome piece of software by the way) that he found my story amusing, I figured that I'd also post it here, partly as fun, partly as a cautionary tale. Also, I'd appreciate any tips as to what to check for in my system, it's a weird feeling to know that some stuff might have been messed up under the hood.

This sounds exactly what I'm searching for then. Besides that I don't know Zig and would prefer C/C++ I only hear good or familiar things. Bspwm is also not the most bug free wm when it comes to visual glitches.

Also not beeing so monolithic and relying on external programs is actually a major plus point for me. Actually I really dislike how Wayland (or rather most compositor implementations) fused everything into one project.

I think I'll give it a try at some point.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
