An important difference between Wayland and X11 is that Wayland by concept combines window manager and compositor. That made it harder to write simple or experimental window managers for Wayland, such as StumpWM or i3.
River is a compositor for Wayland that supports implementing a window manager separately, with an independent window placement paradigm, in an arbitrary language, for example Python, Lisp, Rust, zig, C, Janet - you get it.
Here is the wiki page listing 26 different window managers for river:
https://codeberg.org/river/wiki/src/branch/main/pages/wm-list.md
Some of these are only 600 lines of code in a Lisp-like language (Janet).
The ones I find most interesting are mousetrap and mopotamo - I am a big fan of StumpWMs manual tiling and configurability.
If you know the alpine mountains, there is something you need to be aware of if you go e.g. hiking in Scotland: Weather is a lot harsher there even at lower altitudes. A peak of 1200 meters can be as challenging as over 2000 meters in Switzerland or Austria. Even at a height that would be an afternoon walk more southern, the wind chill can be really dangerous.
It is said that the atmosphere is thinner there in more northern latitudes, and while this is physically is nonsense, this describes something real.
