Two Questions:

  • Why is it needed to set up resolutions If you work with screens in these Modern days. There should only be zooming?
  • I have two screens one HD and one 4K. Why could I not set both screens as same physical high or same width?

Well yes, the rest of the world does have better paper. 21×29.7, the only ratio to conserve itself when halving the sheet

Wait, is that true? Is there something special about that ratio in particular that lets it conserve ratio when dividing?

Yes it's true. It's the square root of 2, which is why it works.

For anyone else wondering, this is a X11 vs Wayland meme - i.e. desktop window managers. Yeah.

DmMacniel ,

does Wayland even have a built in DWM? Because both are session manager.

No, Wayland is just a protocol, and the things that implement it are compositors, not WMs

Also, there's no such thing as a DWM, except for the WM called dwm
