I told myself I wasn’t gonna do it anytime soon but I distro hopped from Endeavour OS to Arch with Hyprland in the span of 3 days. Nothing against endeavour. I just tried to customize, broke some stuff and decided to try Hyprland again. I’m quite liking it. It takes awhile to get used to it but it’s fun. I cloned a repo for a customized version of it. I don’t know how long I’ll stick with it but wish me luck!

    you should set up some btrfs snapshots to avoid this feeling of wanting to jump ships when you mess everything up.

    edit: I just checked the hyperland website, and damn that looks good… I might distro hop too

      btrfs snapshots

      I had a snapshot with Timeshift but did not revert back any changes made to the theming I was working on, so I distro hopped.

        Timeshift makes OS snapshots, but theming is stored almost all the time in the home directory. Deleting your home directory or only select folders (e.g. .config) would’ve probably reset theming. Or creating a new user.

      This is all I needed to check what Hyprland is about.

      Also why do you need to distrohop?
