Pick Hydra if…
Hydra suits Nix and NixOS package developers who need to build and test projects through jobsets. It is not needed by people who only want to use NixOS.
Pick Papyrus if…
Papyrus suits Linux users on Wayland who want animated wallpapers, playlist rotation, or separate backgrounds across monitors. COSMIC users also get wallpaper-based accent color and light or dark mode controls.
