An honest review on Hyprland

In this video we'll take a look at a tiling Wayland compositor called Hyprland, that offers a bunch of features, such as animations, blur, different window layouts and much more. Enjoy!

    I feel it would be silly to make this review more opinionated or prescriptive. The pros and cons of a WM are essentially its set of features vs. its bugs and feature gaps. Anyone familiar with window managers in general would be able to estimate how this WM would fit their preferences, and someone lacking context couldn't make a great educated choice based on someone else's opinions anyway.

    @@bakmanthetitan very true, but anyone in the Linux space I feel would probably already know what hyprland is, any anyone out of the Linux space probably wouldn’t want to use hyprland as their first wm. Even if nobody new what it was, my expectations for a video called an honest review was a review. Personal opinions about its usability, if it changed their productivity / workflow. What its negatives and positives are, not just like a feature list. I can go onto the wiki and read that for myself if I want. I want opinions

    Agreed. I could have read the hyperland documentation and gathered the same information. It would have been more helpful to compare it to another wm or at least show what the standout feature of hyperland is.

    It should be noted that "Wayland will never replace X11" is already an outdated slogan. Fedora has already switched, and starting with the recent Plasma 6, Wayland is now the default session. I agree that X11 isn't going anywhere for a very long time (assuming the board can fill its empty roles), it will likely be around for many years or decades even, but all the "Wayland is the future" stuff people have been saying for years seems to be actually happening now. I made the switch from i3 to Hyprland about 6 months ago, and have had no major issues with any software, even X11 stuff that requires xwayalnd. There was some additional config required because of my NVIDIA card, but it is all well-documented.

    @@YoucefDAANE There are *some* NVIDIA cards that have problems, specifically with e-sync, though a PR that finally fixes this +2 year old issue was just merged into the staging branch of Wayland a few weeks ago, so not long until it is considered solved. Keep in mind that using Wayland/Hyprland with NVIDIA is typically not a problem with *most* NVIDIA cards, you simply have to jump through a couple extra hoops with the configuration when setting it up. This is usually just a matter of using the DKMS NVIDIA package, setting a kernel parameter in your boot loader. and defining a few environment variables. If you are exclusively using your integrated Intel graphics, then no, you would not have to worry about the NVIDIA issues at all, though that is not an ideal solution.

    Hyprland does goed work but it also misses a few features which for me are essential: - integrated panel, when the panel is integrated it is just easier, I never have any issues with hiding the panel in dwm but I have noticed issues with that in other tiling window managers which either don't integrate it or which did not implement hiding (sway). - integrated systemtray, dwm kind of has it integrated, all you need to do to get it is automatically do that patch. It is the biggest patch so it is recommended to do that first - the tag-feature, it is incredibly productive to show more than one workspace and to pin a program to more than one workspace What hyprland does well: the animations. It feels more 'modern' because of that. Though I find it pleasant to see it I do prefer instant actions, so no animations, it is faster.

I have no thoughts to moving to Wayland from x11 while it works(i think it WILL works, Wayland is good, but not at all things). Major Wayland's problem is that it hasn't a lot of tools which x11 has. I mean about xclip, xkill and etc. for example i bind a key for xkill and can kill any process by it. On Wayland i should find additional software for this....

    one bug is that if you attach a monitor to your laptop and then disable it followed by your remove your hdmi cable, it internally breaks without telling you anything. If you reattach the hdmi and enable the external monitor again, the entire session crashes. The other problem is the lack of a lock screen that is stable enough wtih multiple monitors with the laptop's own monitor being disabled.
