[…] I announce that our move off of wlroots is now complete and MR 6608 is now merged.
Seems like a very bad decision
Why? Hyprland has been limited by wlroots multiple times in the past.
Do you have examples of this? Not being contrarian, I actually run Hyprland myself. I’m just curious where the limitations of wlroots have been.
the blog post inside the linked blog post goes over some points. each point is copy and pasted more or less.

competing standards
this doesn’t apply here. hyprland has announced that “all your wlroots programs will still work”. so they are keeping support for wlr protcols
I think its a good idea not having wlroots everywhere, its important so that people dont just assume every wlroot extension is available
People advocating for Xorg make exactly the opposite argument and wlroots got a home at FDO for a reason. Also, this is not a move away from wlroots on technological grounds, it’s because the Hyprland developer got banned because of his behavior.
Hyprland never used wlroots itself. It always used a fork of it.
