I’d love to find an alternative to xdotool’s auto type feature (or ClickPaste from Windows).
There is wtype but unfortunately it doesn’t work in KDE nor GNOME because neither of them support the right protocol. I’ve run into the “<DE> hasn’t implemented $PROTOCOL” a few times in the past and it’s certainly a bit annoying.
Aside from when that comes up, I don’t really have any complaints. A tool we used for work was never going to be fully functional on Wayland because of its dependence on Xinerama (I think) but thankfully we’ve moved away from it.

I like ydotool, uses a systemd user service, but fulfills my needs of KB shortcuts to paste text into vnc sessions
