HWiNFO isn't like neofetch at all. HWiNFO is an (ugly) graphical app made for diagnostics. Neofetch is a text-only banner tool to display basic system info to summarize your system when showing off, etc.

I don't like it because neofetch is a command-line but HWiNFO isn't and it isn't on Linux where as neofetch is and is made for linux

In my testing, Neofetch is faster and has better information that is displayed with better formatting. I'm guessing Neofetch improved and that might explain why there are comments saying Screenfetch is faster and looks better, which was not the case for me. Screenfetch hasn't been updated since 2019.

Compared to Neofetch: Fastfetch is noticably faster and lighter on the system. It also show more information and seem to be more configurable.

Before installing, DNF reckon Fastfetch would take up 33 MB (14 packages) if installed while Neofetch would take up 37 MB (21 packages) if installed.

Replacing Neofetch with Fastfetch is to me a no-brainer. :)

Not a screenshot-focused way of showing off your system, like neofetch is. Can, however provide some of the same functionality.

Not exactly an alternative in terms of appearance. But it gives detailed info about every hardware component. You definitely don't want to use this for a screenshot LOL. It's more of a debugger.

It's the best windows alternative to neofetch, since it's running natively and faster. You also can easily install it from scoop or chocolatey package managers.
