maid 2 bake: >>100083936

if I'm about to start writing a new window manager in the year of our lord 2024, and I use proprietary Nvidia drivers, should I create an X11 wm or a Wayland compositor?
this question is based purely in a compatibility and future proofing sense, not which is more time efficient or easier.
Wayland supposedly works but I'm worried about putting all this work in just for it to be too unstable to use.
and don't just try to sell me on whatever server you use, fucking shills
many thanks

THIS IS MORE TECHNOLOGY THAN ANY OF YOUR STUPID LINUX VS WINDOWS VS ANDROID VS iOS AI GENERATED TRANIME BULLSHIT

Can women code?

Especially thin laptops.

The Macbook Air M3 weighs 1490g.
The Huawei Matebook X weighs 980g.

Who does this stuff appeal to? They're easier to break, and they're less powerful than thick laptops that weighs 3-4 times as much, since there is much more powerful hardware instead.

Don't buy anything OTHER THAN IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T, X, and W/P Series if you want the Real Business Experience™
>Other business laptops are welcome in /tpg/ (Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook)

Why ThinkPad?
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap
>Excellent keyboards, tactile feel and quiet
>Great durability: magnesium roll cage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop
>Easy to repair (most models), upgrade & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model, spare parts easy & cheap to obtain
>Excellent Linux & *BSD support
