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.

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
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?
