Auto-type seems to be broken in Wayland for KeePassXC. Is there any workaround or alternative password manager that supports auto-type on Wayland.
I just recently moved to Fedora 43 Workstation from Arch Linux, and Wayland for me represented the most significant regression for the Linux desktop. Almost everything is broken, including basic screen sharing / screen recording and now even auto-type.
Certainly there must be solutions, I cannot believe Fedora/Gnome would be willing to break so many things without alternatives.
The only “workaround” I know of is an X11-based spin, like MATE.
Thankfully MATE is still around and I’m not changing from it anytime soon for my main system. My other machine on Gnome ran into this infuriating Wayland change and the usability is seriously worse, from unavailable Auto-type to copy/paste not working as before, etc.
It is sad that something not ready for production was pushed onto people like this. This is the first time in 8 years that I installed a Linux distro and I’ve had to do so much troubleshooting, but differently than 8 years ago, now there are simply no solution to get stuff to work.
