I upgraded from 33 to 34, and whenever I switched language from English to Hebrew, I can only type hebrew in KDE apps (like kwrite etc) but not in other apps (like chrome).
Instead of Hebrew, I get English letters, depends on the window I’m typing in.
While this happen, I see “IL” icon in toolbar which means the chosen language is Hebrew.
couldn’t find this in the known issues section
is there any solution?

now I realize that I have something in the toolbar called IBus which probably controls the language.
I didn’t see this IBus in Fedora 33.

$ im-choose

Woah! that worked!
thank you so much.
May I ask what search query you used to find that?
all I could find is how to remove ibus which didn’t work for me as it’s a dependency of gnome-shell

Simply searched ‘fedora ibus’, the third item described the solution:
How to use ibus for inputting Chinese in Cinnamon on Fedora tagged Chinese, cinnamon, Fedora, How to, ibus, icon, Linux, tray, Tutorial, yum.
