I don't know how it compares to nsxiv, but imv supports Wayland.
Can you open animated gifs in imv? I just get a black screen, but the home page says animated gifs are supported.
I recently coded up a dirt simple image viewer. Like it is stupidly simple.
You can give it a go https://github.com/Dr-42/imeye
I tried imv and hated it. I just use feh (through XWayland) or mpv now.
mpv as an image viewer? Is that... possible?
Just tried it and, yes. Jpg, Png, and Webp open as a half-second video. Actually kinda neat, I adjusted gamma, saturation, and saved a copy with 3 button presses. Well, 4 if you count pause..
Why pause? Does it start a slideshow in the current directory?
The gnome image viewer is Wayland native
Sounds interesting, but the requirements say it needs gnome-desktop. I'm using Hyprland on NixOS, so it doesn't sound like this will work for my setup unfortunately. Thank you for the suggestion. Hopefully this helps others.
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.

Try swayimg
I like how it supports animated webp and gift files right out of the box. Would be perfect if you could open images from the file manager and navigate, but it doesn't look like that's in the works.
@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 think the --all option is this mode.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
