So another grifter pandering to the ultra-conservatives? Where have I seen that again?


This I can believe.


Dwm is both the compositor and window manager in Windows. It’s the same with WindowServer in macOS.

If you are talking about the shell or task switcher, then yeah your point stand with Gnome but KDE has kwin and plasmashell processes.
