To anyone who is still unsure of which WM to use, these would be a valuable
read. In the first item, there is plenty to impress the reader and OSS seems
to be well ahead of any commercial, proprietary equivalent.

It's a total waste of time and if you think Linux and OSS is ahead of
commercial ventures you need to have your head examined by a competent
doctor.

Linux is so confused and fragmented it's actually starting to self implode.
You "freedom of choice" boobs are actually doing more harm than good with
400 different versions of Linux and who the hell knows how many different
desktop environments.
Documentation scattered all over the place, much of it outdated and
incorrect.

Linux = ball of confusion.

It depends on what the OP meant by 'well ahead'.

Give some examples.

good with 400 different versions of Linux and who the hell knows how many

How many viruses, worms and trojans are there infecting windows based
machines? How many are there infecting Linux based machines?

incorrect.

Only to the easily confused. That seems to be you.
