Why don't you run for office? (self.politics)

I'm making the bold assumption, that most people here are not running, in either local body or national elections.

Everyone loves the complain about what "public servants" do. So why not step up and do something about it?

No accusation intended or implied. Just curious.

I tested in Zen and it works fine for me 🤷

I don't have English as an input, only Māori. It doesn't prevent you using letters not in Māori, in fact it seems to work the same as English but allow the macrons. I noticed the same thing in Windows as well.

Ah! That's what it was, as soon as I took English out, I can right-alt and do the ā.

Too easy! I suspect it can't use more than one input source at once, and you're supposed to switch between them using the Super+Space combo. So it was probably still set to English.
