Super off-topic, but somewhat related. What people use to automate non-browser GUI apps on Linux on Wayland? I need to occasionally do it, but this particular combination eludes me.
- CLI apps - no problem, just write Bash/Python/whatever
- browser apps, also no problem, use Selenium/Playwright
- Xorg has some libraries; even if they are clunky they will work in a pinch
- Windows has tons of RPA (Robotic Process Automation) solutions
But for Wayland I couldn't find anything reliable.

We’ve been doing this for a while before Claude made it cool.
- bogdart 2y agoThat's one of the main reasons why I don't switch to Wayland
