    Basically none, if you want user friendly macro and layers your basically stuck to windows. That or your doing bullshit jank that barely works, breaks frequently and requires way too much effort for no good results.

    Its one of the better examples of Linux being dog shit at being user friendly.

    The most common excuse I see is it’s not safe and secure so it’s not supported. Or you need to just use an abandoned app from a random GitHub that’s 9 years old only works on x11 and requires a blood sacrifice.

      Yeah there is one project for wayland which creates a virtual input device and hooks into the hotkey system in kde plasma, but it’s jank af and adding more than one macro bugs out.

      It doesn’t seem too complicated tho, might be a good beginner project for updating my 25 year old coding skills.
