waybar.org - official website or not?

Is this an official website of waybar or not?
https://waybar.org

I don't see it linked from here, and the author appears to be different, but I'm not certain.

I was just recently doing a quick google search to get to the docs for waybar and this page showed in the results.

This page screams fraudulent for various reasons:

1. The page is not listed here in the git repository
2. The domain was registered 10th of September 2025 and last updated 5 days later (less than a month ago), see https://who.is/whois/waybar.org
3. The site does not let you download the code from the releases here on GitHub.
   I did download the archive from their site to an isolated environment, at a cursory glance the code is from this repository but I cannot say if it contains any malicious code.
4. The contact us email is for a random gmail address instead of Alexays email address (which is listed on their profile page).
5. They list their location in the UK, while Alexays (as stated on their profile page) resides in France.

@Alexays, pinging you just in case you've not yet see the discussion and like to take action.

It's definitely not official, why would an official waybar site use the hyprland logo? and their example screenshot isn't even using waybar at all. At the bottom for the logo they misspelled waybar as wabar... hosted in america, official address given as UK. The creator of waybar seems to be from france.

It's also like a landing page to sell a product.... it doesn't add up. I'm not entirely sure what the motive could be.
