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.

Is there an image viewer like nsxiv, but with native Wayland support? (codeberg.org)

According to this issue, it looks like there are no plans, understandably, for making a version/fork of nsxiv but with native Wayland support.

Any recommendations for a simple image viewer in Hyprland?

I tried imv and hated it. I just use feh (through XWayland) or mpv now.

mpv as an image viewer? Is that... possible?

Just tried it and, yes. Jpg, Png, and Webp open as a half-second video. Actually kinda neat, I adjusted gamma, saturation, and saved a copy with 3 button presses. Well, 4 if you count pause..

Why pause? Does it start a slideshow in the current directory?
