It's only okay.
It takes a lot of configuration to customize things how you'd want them, the documentation isn't great and the primary community is tedious to deal with in the alt-right/edglord sense.
If you wanted to try it I'd recommend using some pre-made configs and customizing from there. Vanilla hyprland just gives you a blank desktop with instructions pointing you to the config file.
I don't use it due to the community, but I've been impressed by some ricing community setups. If you enjoy UX, it has a lot of flexibility. But for a daily driver it's a lot of work in ways KDE Plasma just isn't.
