Bring back the mascot #4706

Description

I saw on Reddit that the Hypr-chan wallpapers have been removed. The boomers still using Reddit in 2024 are now rejoicing in the fact that Hyprland has become more matured. I think it has become less cool, perhaps we might even call it Boomerland now. Speaking on behalf of Gen-Z and feminism, I protest that Hypr-chan be added back.

From Reddit:

Nothing said "accessible software for everyone" than a drawing of an overtly sexualised girl... Good riddance.

The girl is not even overly sexualized. It's just a cool girl wearing nice outfits. Only the patriarchy would ever say something like that.

Nothing says "accessible software for everyone" than based non-corpo pilled software with a waifu mascot.

I see from the commit that there was a contest, and I don't know how it was conducted. If I were to know nothing better, I'd say the voting was hijacked by corporate AI to enforce the will of American right wing traditionalist capitalists. How did this abomination (which is the corpse of Hypr-chan, how disrespectful) win instead of this?

To the complaining boomers: the future is now, old man.

Ideas (for people who have complaints)

neither do I, as this is a joke.

Also the old one was subjectively better but I guess you've made your choice.
