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 will daily drive wayland once sway fixes all their compatibility bugs with i3 and once polybar works on wayland as well.
I think you meant sway, i3 is a window manager written for X11.
?
I said: "I will daily drive wayland once sway fixes their compatibility bugs with i3" That is I am not using wayland at the moment and I'm using i3 (x11) due to bugs in sway.
Sway is the wayland window manager that is a "drop in" replacement of i3. I can't use it right now because it has several bugs that prevent me from using it.
@Samueru @Nibodhika Which specific bugs?
