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.

But then your still using i3 + lots of custom scripts. I don't find the time anymore to maintain all this custom config. I want to switch to Wayland but I don't want to invest all that time with sway again.
The point is that you don't have to maintain any custom scripts. Everything come per-configured out of the box. You only have to tweak what you don't like. Is that any different from KDE, Gnome, XCFE or any of the "easy" DEs and their configs?
Yes, it's still X11. I want to switch to Wayland.
