- stavros 3y agoInput leap was forked two years ago and the Readme still says "we hope to have a release ready very soon", which doesn't sound very hopeful. Too bad, Synergy was always a very useful project.
- aystatic 3y agoThis announcement was only added to the README in early October[1]. In the meantime you can of course compile it yourself/grab a build from GH actions. I'm sure they would appreciate the testing, especially leading up to release :-) [1]: https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/commit/78ca8f1ef7b662b1e4ae63c4050403aa219f8a53 https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/commit/78ca8f1ef7b6...
- stavros 3y agoOh good, thanks, I will!
- loloquwowndueo 3y agoI haven’t tried Synergy. barrier and input-leap were useless for me as they don’t capture “ctrl-alt” so my crucial “open a terminal” shortcut always opens it on the primary computer. Maybe Wayland is to blame?
- elaus 3y agoDidn't have any problems with X11 and various computers - so maybe it really is Wayland-specific?
- ElCapitanMarkla 3y agoYou might have to change the modifier keys on the server config. I have a Linux server and MacOS client, a few minutes trial and error fiddling those settings until I got it all working.
- michaelmior 3y agoThanks! I had thought I remembered Synergy being open source. I haven't used it in a while, so it's good to know there's alternatives.
