  • I’m not an expert, but my understanding of the Global Shortcuts portal is that it’s very much designed for the push-to-talk use case where an app is not focused but still receives button events for exactly the keys its interested in and no other keys: I think this would cause problems if an app requested every key (e.g. if the request was approved then no keys would work in every other app)

    It’ll be interesting to see how the remaining compatibility/accessibility issues are tackled, either in portals or in wayland protocols











  • LLVM supports fewer target machines than GCC
