From the blog post:
Hello everyone!
As it’s been not much of a secret anymore, Hyprperks has been a few months in the making, and now it’s all come together.
Hyprperks is now open to purchase to everyone!
If you want to support the development for 5€ + tax a month, and also get a few goodies from us, please check out the pricing page
You will get:
- Member-only forum access, with dev Q&A, support from me, and more
- Premium desktop experience, which is a set of preconfigured dotfiles with a one-click install and update
- And of course, support the continued development.
If you don’t have a Hyprland Account yet, consider making one! It’s free, and gives you access to our public forums, where you can find answers, ask questions, and interact with the community.
Also, thank you for all the support, guys. You are awesome!
Cheers, vax.
Is this an ad? I think this is an ad. It sure looks like an ad.
… Wait, so does the dotfile thing mean the out of the box experience will be degraded? Why doesn’t someone just fork it and set the defaults to match the dotfile? And if it isn’t better, how arrogant do you have to be to think your theme and setup is worth a monthly sub?
Edit: Looking at the actual page, it seems that buying the sub doesn’t give you the same benefits as donating €5 or vice versa. For some reason.
To people who downvote: Life isn’t free.
How much did you donate to open source projects you use so far? you know life isn’t free
Isn’t this guy a right-wing nut/borderline fascist?
will sub right now
Yes, but don’t mention it to the people that only care about their eye candy because they get very mad when you do that.
Yea it’s not like there’s proof of any of that other than old edgy discord messages of a teenager. blahaj user for sure was very normal in their teen years xD.
He was banned from Free desktop two years ago for the transphobia in his discord. It wasnt some decade old messages from when he was a kid.
You are just lying now. He made no transphobic statements. It was a mod that nicknamed a trans troll “who/cares”, who was already removed by then. He was banned for not complying with free desktop’s coc. Also awesome how much Free Desktop is contributing now after they remove their only active contributor xD. Also it was an year ago not two. The incident they were investigating was then two years old. Here is the Drew’s blog for proper info.
I did not say he said something transphobic, reread my message. I said he was banned for the transphobia in his discord, the community space that he runs and is responsible for, especially in the case of actions by other mods.
My bad on the date, but I really dont think it being 3 years ago makes a big difference. He was still an adult at the time.
Besides that event, hes just an asshole. This is obvious from the email exchange and from his blog posts.
Reading that email exchange alone, he’s clearly a right-wing nut at least. This needs to be called out at every mention of him, especially when he begs for money.
And OP gets very mad when you call out this premium dotfile subscription bs, and proceeds to delete threads.
What’s there to call out about it?
You don’t see anything wrong with putting tools to make it more accessible for new users and nontechnical people behind a subscription?
Thanks for confirming.
Cool! Hope it works out.
yeah, development gotta happen somehow
