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.

Tried xset, not compatible. Tried searching equivalent command, there was none. That was in 2022.
Wayland is not a standalone server like Xorg and it doesn’t have standard utilities to control stuff like DPMS. That functionality goes to compositors that are effectively individual Wayland server implementations. Compositors can provide utilities to control display, and they usually do. For example, on KDE Wayland you can call
kscreen-doctor --dpms off
, wlroots compositors (Sway, Wayfire, Hyprland,…) have inter-compatible tools, likeswaymsg output DP-1 dpms off
. If that’s what you meant anyway.There really should be a front end script that has uniform command line parameters, finds what your compositor is, translate the command line arguments and send them.
