From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I tried it about a year ago. I don't remember why I left it, but I think I did have a couple issues with it related to nvidia. I'll try it again.
Get the Nvidia 555 beta drivers or you'll have flickering. There's Nvidia specific config in the hyprland docs as well. In addition, if it's a newer card make sure you disable the onboard firmware via Kernal params.
I have been using hyprland for a while and just switched to using my Nvidia card yesterday. Been running well so far.
I have had a few issues with Hyprland / nVidia, ultimately making me abandon hyprland as much as I absolutely loved it.
I couldn't work with TexStudio and Electron apps were at best buggy.
If you're hopping distros at the same time, CachyOS should just work out of the box with Hyprland.
