Is there a desktop environment with full wayland support other than Gnome and Plasma? I’d really like LXQT but without X.
I know about Sway and Hyprland but would prefer it if I didn’t have to install and configure all the parts of a DE separately.
COSMIC DE will be in alpha soon. It’s written for Wayland, in rust
There are several wlroot based DE, like river, sway, and hyperland. They are all light, but focused on tiling window management and keyboard navigation. Thus, they are not exactly a LXQT replacement.
They aren’t desktop environments though. No polkit, no auto mounting, no handling of media keys, no network management, no session management, NP display management, … out of the box. Everything has to be configured manually.
