#1 problem for me is a combination of issues: - xwayland has no DPI scaling support (or rather, naive blurry pixel upscaling) - jebrains ides have no native Wayland support Result is a blurry mess of an ide. Once that is resolved, I'll be wholeheartedly aboard the Wayland train.

> jebrains ides have no native Wayland support I'm not sure about this statement to be honest, but maybe I never cared that much since xwayland works already good on my machines: have you tried with a custom JDK? I had some issues with sway and Jetbrains back in November, but I fixed those by running them on the latest JDK: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/3007#issuecomment-7245... Granted that yes, probably it'…

According to their bugtracker[1], there does still seem to be issues, but I hadn't looked in a while, and I'm glad to now see they plan to have it solved by end of the year \o/

Anyone knows how to bind the printscreen key to automated flameshot screenshoting ? (using awesome/sway/thingslikethat).

I'd like to emulate spectacle (kde screenshot tool) that allows a 2 seconds delay between rectangular area or application to be screenshoted.

I am not able to use it on sway with default swaybar. The notification simply says "Unable to capture screen" when I click on the tray icon. From CLI also I tried a few commands but nothing happens. No errors as well. Can you please help me?

0.9.x still has quite a few issues including not working well on scaled hidpi setups on Wayland.

In i3 (and therefor sway) you can use bindsym. I don't know it off the top of my head, but it should be easy enough to find. The "-d" option with flameshot is used to have delays.
