I tried a few tiling WMs over the years, but xmonad was the only one that seemed to take desktop environment support seriously. thankfully by the time the wayland switch broke xmonad I had cosmic available to move to.

"the wayland switch broke xmonad"

That doesn't mean anything. xmonad is not broken afaik, still in use everywhere and wayland, which is just a protocol, has no power over it.

i would have thought it was pretty understandable shorthand for "once i switched to wayland my personal xmonad setup stopped working". wasn't accusing xmonad of being broken!

It is like saying that kde or gnome is broken since you switched to MacOs.
