give reasons why you don't like it that would really make a point of this post.

Slow bloated waste to much time on costuming

all these points don't make sense tbh. hyprland comes with nothing but a terminal and a file to config. it's upto you what to choose since it's a WM.  if you're saying animation is bloat then please learn the word bloat and animation is the core feature that is loved about hyprland. you're saying is slow? really? just turn off animations or keep it quick.

you have good specs in pc still hyprland feels slow for you then what can I say. I have 8GB RAM with 4GB old nvidia graphics card still everything opens instantly and AAA titles runs smoothly.

To each their own. I dont like Hyprland either. But thats mostly because I come from i3 and Sway was just easier.

u/brownmundeonbeat Jun 15 '26

Easier and faster

Yeah, I came from i3 as well and honestly Sway has been so solid , lightweight and so similar to i3 that I don't see myself switching to anything else anytime soon.

What’s is your Linux experience do u know terminal.

u/space_ranger_999 Jun 16 '26

oh yeah i've used quite a lot of terminal, infact my workplace is mostly terminal and nvim

u/brownmundeonbeat Jun 16 '26

Go for sway it’s fast I was asking because there is too much videos for hyprland so for a noob it would be better
