  > Hotkeys Bullshit. No one cares that I can go and register global hotkeys in the compositor config file. The whole point is that apps do it themselves. If you still want a security theater, then add a prompt or what macos has where you go give it permissions. https://wearewaylandnow.com/ https://wearewaylandnow.com/ If you see the global hotkeys section. It still has a lot of caveats. Bonus: see what's needed for push to talk to work... The benchmark before wayland becomes default is: Do OBS start recording shortcuts work. And does discord push to talk work. Today on KDE and GNOME the answer is no. Any distro/DE that pushes wayland as a default without the answer to both of these questions being yes is pure cancer. For anyone interested, there is a dbus API to register shortcuts that I believe KDE supports, gnome does only since the last 6 months, and hyprland/sway don't, and likely won't. Obviously, app developers aren't going to use it with such fragmented support.
