hmm interested in the battery life comment. is this a thing? if I could push an extra 20 minutes or so I'd switch

is this a thing?

Honestly, I have no clue. With DWM I had like 3-4 hrs at max and now I am using DWL for 6-8 hrs.

What is also noticeable, is that closing the lid puts the laptop actually into sleep. Because with DWM it continued using the battery as if it was actually used.

I am not advanced user enough to tell what exactly caused this.

I've also noticed a dramatic improvement in battery life with wayland. Been using it since F21 it's very efficient imo
