Tech Bros want you to install it because DHH is a fellow tech bro and a millionaire 90% of Lemmy hates it because of DHH’s post about how he used to idolize London as a kid but now stays the fuck away because not enough white people. What makes it special is that it comes preinstalled with hyprland so you don’t have to pacman it. What makes hyprland special is that it’s a tiling wm for wayland made by someone who, judging by their behaviour on discord and github, is 13 years old. You can just install it on Arch. You also get it as an option in the installer for CachyOS, meaning you can get it preinstalled on Arch without using Omarchy. Also you can just use Sway, which is also a tiling wm for Wayland. Less eye candy, but probably more stable and less likely to have significant security issues.
