TL;DR: We don't "fail", we're just not interested in providing one.

Long answer: Hyprland is highly customizable and a nightmare to maintain the dotfiles. I'm awfully sure once we provide a Hyprland ISO, people will start questioning the preconfigured setup of choice.

I find it pretty quick to go from a "base" install into a pretty slick hyprland setup.  All about the collection of ui apps you happen to prefer and then you need dotfiles for all those things.  Pretty much what nous is talking about.  Garuda has a hyprland iso but from what I've noticed (haven't followed it super closely) it often breaks to a certain degree due to config syntax changes (which should slow down as development matures).  Also garuda's ui is very very specific to their "style" which I personally immediately drastically changed (but did use as a learning tool).

Edit: not advertising for Garuda just illuminating upon some of the issues.

I am almost exclusively using hyprland. Installation fairly often needs manual configuration change to make it work again. As an illustration I am typing this from xfce because hyprland stopped working today on my hybrid graphics card. I'll have to use xfce for a couple of days until I figure out what's wrong this time.

In short, as a hyprland user, it is nice but not mainstream ready. Even if we have hyprland install ISO I would probably install xfce anyway and add hyprland on top of that.

I more than once recovered completely dead linux installation, I am linux necromancer.

Could also remove hex from your linux for a fee. In rare cases, if your linux can't be revived, I can read future from its guts.
