@Jffbk,

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve included Hyprland in the article, highlighting its Wayland support and tiling features.

Appreciate your input!

It is a tiling window manager that uses Wayland instead of X11, and I have used it as my main window manager for Arch Linux for quite some time.

@Amit,

Given your needs for stability and reliability, I’d recommend trying i3 or XMonad. Both are known for their stability and have strong community support.

i3 is particularly beginner-friendly and highly configurable, while XMonad is a great choice if you’re comfortable with Haskell and want more flexibility.

Which window manager (WM) would be good for me that does not break frequently and is stable?

Regardless, it’s my WM-of-choice, which I’ve been using since (at least) October 2006.

With Ubuntu and Linux Mint (i386), and now Debian 12 (arm64, on a Raspberry Pi 4B, 8GB). With only the XDM Login Manager and no DE, it’s low-resource, and perfect for my needs.
