I am a newbie with hyprland. Got introduced to it with a bog video, and because it was keyboard only, it was a good fit for my dell nuggetbook with a poor trackpad. It isn’t my only machine, so I felt safe enough in doing so.

It has taken a bit of configuring the files, but I have really enjoyed the process of learning.

So for me it was a way of reviving a machine that was painful to use.

Also most rice I have seen are hyprland. Probably doesn’t help
