An honest review on Hyprland
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 тра 2024
- 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!
My configuration: github.com/Andrey0189/hyprland-rice

This is more of a summary of what hyprland is not a review.
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
It probably was but it also was very helpful.
They reviewed the features, honestly 😅
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.
Nice one, looking forward for more videos about your Nixos setup and experience, information and guides are appreciated. Keep up the good work on the channel.
It should be noted that "Wayland will never replace X11" is already an outdated slogan.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.
For the majority of nvidia users it's still very broken, even when you follow guides etc because of the issue with explicit sync
@@notuxnobux I'm pretty sure that the explicit sync thingy has already been merged into Wayland.
tl;dr, it's just a matter of time untill the DEs implement it.
Wayland is really great except for NVIDIA. Wish I could switch, but I'm basically stuck on X11 until I get a Radeon card.
does that apply to any nvidia card , and what if i use the integrated intel gpu instead ?
@@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.
this video was lowkey the best intruduction video to hyprland that I've ever seen!
love the inclusion of lemmino’s 3301 track. great video!
I see a project with an anime mascot. I clicked.
😅😢 but this is Linux
Even better. @@tanamo1192
@@tanamo1192 And?
Great video, didn't expect it to be this channel's first
keep it up I would like to see more from you!
He was doing content in Russian. It's his second channel for broader audience
Excellent video just the right balance of information please make more👍
wow, very deep analysis. really enjoyed the video. also, these dotfiles look sooo good
Great video!
Im so pumped up about the current linux desktop enthusiasm. Thank you for making these kind of videos. That matters!
I got some good pointers from this video, thank you!
I was planning on starting to learn Hyprland tomorrow. THIS VID BLEW MY MIND. I love it. Thank you for everything you put together for this!
Very informative video
Great video, if possible please leave links to the articles you mention in the description
Music is LEMMiNO - Cipher (BGM) in case anyone wanted it
I liked this videos found what I was looking for
Is it easily possible to get a clean window manager, no round corners, no deformation ?
Great video!
are there any good presets for Macs?
Йор инглиш вери импрессив. Ай неожидать фром ю чэннл ин инглиш, но жокс эбаут йор пранансиэйшн. Ай хэв зе сейм ван
Coming from sway, this seems so much better
Cool setup! Trying out Hyprland myself currently, and it is looking very promising. Do you store your dotfiles somewhere? That waybar theme looks amazing!
Thanks! I'm going to share my dotfiles in a few days in the description of the video
Can't focus on the video, Lemmino music is just so good
Can another program be used to handle key bindings? Like is there an i3ipc equivalent? I like to have chain keybindings where I press multiple keys in succession
You could use sway instead

Легенда❤
thanks! this video made me try it, and I'm thinking I'll switch from i3 after yeaaaars!
also, I'm waiting for those dotfiles :)
just coming back to thank you again, I totally made the switch from i3 and I'm loving it, finally configuring some styles the way I want ❤
Круто, не знал, что у тебя ещё канал на английском. Молодец ❤
👇who recognised the LEMMiNO music
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.
nice
о как, инглиш channel сделал он
What do you think about starting a discord server?
youtube algo got ya!
Finally easy video wallpapers
Hello, which distro are you using and what type of customizations you did with your distro?
Hello. I am using NixOS and I'll make a separate video about this distro and my configuration soon
@@Ampersand-xc9jp nice, looking forward to that video.
@@Ampersand-xc9jp Your dotfiles don't seem to be public, but can I assume you don't use home-manager? If so, is there a reason why? Or do you use it but tried to keep this video Hyprland only?
Great video, can you share your waybar config?
Yes, I'll share my dotfiles in a few days
ого амперсанд теперь на английском? круто!
I like your voice 😅
"automatically but not successfully" - The Linux motto :-)
lol the LEMMiNO music
(i suppose it isnt his music but i know it from there)
it's actually his music, yes he composes a song specifically for every video
Что со старым каналом ?
WOW great review
It's more like a guide video 😂
Didn't expect you gonna create content in english and I am glad u decided to.
How to uninstall it?
I've tried a hyperland maybe 6 month ago and it was not grade, a lot of applications just didn't work, hyperctl didn't work, a media buttons to control sound didn't work, changing layouts from russian to english was terrible experience ever. Maybe i shoud give it a second chance now...
I had the same bad first experience, but last weekend I migrated to Hyprland and it works without any issues except weird focusing of windows while being in a floating windows setup.
@@Linuxdirk cool, but i prefer qtile now. I configured it at last week and it works fine. 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.... Wayland is not for me now, maybe later, when it'll have more window managers, I'll think about moving to it, but now
whats ur gpu?
okay checked neofetch mb
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.
that anime girl thumbnail is super random, but it made me click and I didn't regret
It's not random. It is (was, now they changed it) one of the default wallpapers you get on a clean install of hyprland
To be more specific the girl is called hyprchan lmao. She’s the offical hyprland mascot
@@kn4ughty... which already caused trouble in corporate environment.
I would recommend naming this something like overview of hyperland, not review.
bro made a tutorial ;-;
ok kthx
Практика для toefl/ielts?

Hyprland is great, if you like discrimination and a toxic community.
Go back to your cave.
I am a simple man, I see anime girl I click. BTW How did you make your windows look like that
Its hyperland
I wish Hyprland would use Lua for configuration, as normal human beings would do :D
Not a review, give me back my time.
Oh this is odd, I have:
binde = $mainMod SHIFT, h, movewindow, l
binde = $mainMod SHIFT, j, movewindow, d
binde = $mainMod SHIFT, k, movewindow, u
binde = $mainMod SHIFT, l, movewindow, r
To move windows, I don't have to do swapwindows like you did...
Yeah you can move windows
Man I hoped you had that as nixos-homemanager-config that would be nice.
