Going all-in on a Wayland future

Well folks, it’s the beginning of a new era: after nearly three decades of KDE desktop environments running on X11, the future KDE Plasma 6.8 release will be Wayland-exclusive! Support for X11 applications will be fully entrusted to Xwayland, and the Plasma X11 session will no longer be included.

    InputLeap is the only thing that keeps me on X at the moment. Especially since I need it between a Linux host and a Windows client. It just doesn’t work if I use Plasma with Wayland unfortunately and honestly, the github page of InputLeap is everything but helpful.

      Have you tried out Deskflow?

      InputLeap is effectively abandoned and the maintainer has taken over Deskflow which has better Wayland support

        No, I haven’t, but will check it out, thanks!

        I didn’t know InputLeap is also abandoned. Heck, I moved to it from Barrier for the same reason :P
