There have always been lots of Window Managers for Linux. Even when I
started using Linux in the early 2000s there was
 
GNOME
KDE
Enlightenment
WindowMaker
FVWM
IceWM
BlackBox
FluxBox
Sawfish
AfterStep
XFCE3
AnotherLevelUp
AmiWM
TWM
MWM
 
just off the top of my head, I'm sure there are more I'm not
remembering from the early 2000s.

FVWM is quite configurable, its almost better described as a framework
to build a Window Manager rather than a Window Manager itself.  You
can make your own modules and functions, change the behaviour, build
new GUI components.
