Ah yes, the ever growing and maintained X11 window system.
The future of security and standardization, with the mostly used feature of transmitting GUI assets over a network.
And to top it all off - the most documented code project, with the users facing easy customization options, that requires almost no programming language knowledge - and the easily compatible feature matrix, with allways up to date patch files.
Extreme sarcasm.
The Free Desktop organization essentially stopped all development of their old GUI solution for Linux - named X11 Window System, and went all in on developing Wayland, the successor.
Plus, speaking as a former DWM and suckless tools user, it is elitist, and thinks way too highly of themselves - they think their code explains itself (which it doesn’t), features are easy to add (nope), and a readable config file is bloat (it isn’t).
I started using dwm for the very reason OP asked. I wanted to remove the window decoration, have a more simplified view, and have full control over what my windows looked like. It works for exactly what I needed/wanted.
Switch to dwm. https://dwm.suckless.org/

I honestly know nothing about X11 but this reads like sarcasm to me, is it?
