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?

    Gwenview looks a little too full featured, but the Gnome Image Viewer (Loupe) works well. No dependencies needed in Nix, and the arrow keys let you flip between different images that are in the same folder. All of the on-screen functionality works (copy, move to trash, zoom in/out, toggle full-screen, etc.), and keyboard shortcuts and gestures work great. The only bug I have to work out is that it doesn’t respect the gtk theme I have configured (GTK 2, 3, and 4). Otherwise, seems like a good option.

      Maybe this is because loupe uses libadwaita and not standard gtk4. Libadwaita does not follow the gtk theme.

      Glad I could help though
