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.

I know. They added some at one point and I installed an anti-CSD package, I'm also pretty sure they pulled back some of their plans because of backlash too.
If they go full CSD I would probably need to find something else and probably just concede+just use the slimmest window theme there is rather than something frameless even (from what I've seen, other window theme systems are not as modular as xfwm which allows simply deleting the sides/bottom files etc).
Someone could probably make this concept (frameless, minimal title bar, no title on maximized, no raise-on-focus, rolled-up windows, floating window buttons that are only on focused windows) into a simple window manager, probably not me any time soon though. And I'm not sure how easy that is on Wayland (I know options exist to make it easer--such as wlroots I think--though I don't know how it'd compare to making something for X).
