Wayland and audio is fixed, but only on the canary branch for the moment, this isnt lazy either, they changed the whole screenshare flow to suit linux's permission prompts

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Can we get actually working global keybinds in Wayland next? Or is that a chromium/electron problem?
wayland global keybinds are not really ready yet, they're only properly implemented in one desktop, so i don't blame the discord devs for not adding them.
Hyprland and kwin I think.
The hyprland dev is doing a ridiculous amount of work.
Surprised he finds time to work on anything after spending so much of it being a complete dipshit online or falsely pinning his own bugs on other projects. Good for him.
So doing what every single developer does, got it.
Everyone is teflon
i don't think every developer hosts an actively transphobic discord full of dogpiling channers but i might be wrong on this one bestie
They don't work for discord in hyprland unfortunately, it only works when I have discord tabbed in (I tried passing the shortcuts in the hyprland config file)
AFAIK kde's way of doing it is kind of hacky because it was called something like "legacy global keybinds" in settings but I switched off KDE a few months ago so I don't remember the exact details.
https://wiki.hyprland.org/Configuring/Binds/#global-keybinds that's a bug then, it should be working according to the docs.
honestly if this is for push to talk, i have a mic mute toggle in my config that might honestly be better depends on wireplumber and ripgrep though. If you bind it to something and then have it run again on release you can make it a proper push to talk key for every single application.
$micmute = wpctl set-mute @DEFAULT_SOURCE@ toggle ; wpctl get-volume @DEFAULT_SOURCE@ | rg -q 'MUTED' && notify-send ' Mic Muted' -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:mic-state || notify-send --urgency=low ' Mic unmuted' -h string:x-canonical-private-synchronous:mic-statedidn't hyprland implement it wrong by making apps unable to add new global shortcuts themselves, or even request to add them?
No, I don't think it's wrong for it to be specified in the config files for hyprlands purposes, that's standard tiling window manager stuff
It's an Electron problem, yes. The API is there, just waiting to be used.
