I would happily ditch GNOME, KDE, Sway, i3, Wayland, Pulseaudio, pipewire, Freetype2, Network Manager and the other myriad of components of the current Linux UI stack for something designed with passion and a coherent vision.

All of what you have described already existed in projects like RedoxOS, Fuchsia and Haiku.

Maybe those projects (Including SerenityOS) have more in common of being a complete and unified OS than having tons of fragmented system components and projects competing against each other like what you see in the linux desktop ecosystem.

Doesn’t BSD also do that better than Linux too?

Maybe this whole confusion stems from the Linux model dominating the FOSS space when other open source OS’s don’t conform to that approach.

For the GUI stack?
