You are right for me. Of the wayland compositors I am interested in you mentioned them all. E25, and wlroots based Wayfire, Hikari, Lab WC and Hyprland. I prefer lightweight both to carry equipment, and rather lightweight compositors, browsers, choice of search engines, abiword, and other programs that just do what I without problems. I need good info of Fedora, Arch and Debian,Wayland, Pipewire, the new linux tech. Thanks a lot.
