Adjusting idle/sleep settings

[sepulworld]

From the Omarchy Manual

~/.config/hypr/hypridle.conf Controls your idle/sleep settings. Shouldn't need touching.

I seems like from an end-user standpoint adjusting when my computer sleeps and when my computer should lock is something that many user would want to adjust. Or is it just me?

In general I'm still struggling to understand what the preferred method to adjust settings that might be user specific (such as idle/lock settings) w/o having updates blowing them away.

What are most people doing? Is there a way to layer on top dotfiles configs that deep merge and override defaults from OS? I appreciate the feedback

You can change .config all you want and it should stick. The stuff in .local could be overwritten on updates. That's my understanding anyway.
