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?

        If that let’s you flip between images that are in the same folder using arrow keys (or something similar), that would be awesome.

        Unfortunately, --all isn’t an option. The following options are available in swayimg:

        Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
          -r, --recursive      read directories recursively
          -o, --order=ORDER    set sort order for image list: none/[alpha]/random
          -s, --scale=SCALE    set initial image scale: [optimal]/fit/width/height/fill/real
          -l, --slideshow      activate slideshow mode on startup
          -f, --fullscreen     show image in full screen mode
          -p, --position=POS   set window position [parent]/X,Y
          -g, --size=SIZE      set window size: [parent]/image/W,H
          -a, --class=NAME     set window class/app_id
          -c, --config=S.K=V   set configuration parameter: section.key=value
          -v, --version        print version info and exit
          -h, --help           print this help and exit

      @guttermonk
      I have a custom nuke opener file for nnn that do that’s that. Every time I open an image, it uses swayimg -r (recursively).
      I gues you can do some like that with xdg-open

        I navigated to my screenshot folder in terminal and opened an image using swayimg -r but it wouldn’t let me navigate with n or p. I also tried going to my Pictures folder and used swayimg Screenshots/* like this thread suggested, but still no luck.
