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?

    Currently, gnome has moved away from eye of Gnome to Image Viewer/Loupe. The website doesn’t have the dependencies though I don’t think you should need the gnome-desktop package. Perhaps you can look into it. Just be aware that the app is pretty barebones for now.

    Edit - Alternatively, you could look into gwenview which is normally shipped in kde. That will have the advantage of shipping with a lot more editing options and since it is a more mature(I think is the right word) project, I expect it to have better support for esoteric file formats.
