Why is the ydotool virtual device ignored? How I can use ydotool with hyprland?
Same with evsieve: I can see the keys I press, like in wev, but the remap doesn't work for the keyboard or the mouse:
-
evdev keyboard passthrough and non-standard keys
My best suggestion for you is to leverage evsieve: https://github.com/KarsMulder/evsieve

𝑥MK: Use programmable keyboard firmware with any keyboard.
There are many other software tools such as https://github.com/jtroo/kanata and https://github.com/KarsMulder/evsieve. The main difference with 𝑥MK is that you can use native QMK and ZMK.

Anyone Here Using Sway? Is It Stable? How Did You Install?
Ironically I know you can do this in i3 and xorg/gnome using xmodmap or editing the xkb file. I'm pretty sure wayland compositors should be able to read xkb-compliant files but the recommended way of loading that in is probabaly different between various compositors? You could also use a "second generation" interception tool that works at the event device level.

Manjaro + Hackintosh + Windows Setup
You might want to try evsieve, it even has an example about toggling devices and it concludes with a hint on how to get this to work for 2 VMs.
-
Change evdev toggle for keyboard/mouse
Evsieve is amazing in general you sould check it out 🙂
-
Switching my inputs back and forth from guest VM when using GPU passthrough
evsieve has solved that for me, as the virtual device created is always available; it starts when I log on my computer and stay open forever.

Changing the evdev peripheral switch keyboard shortcut?
evsieve can remap. I haven't used it yet but you can find it here: https://github.com/KarsMulder/evsieve
-
Is it possible to remap evdev's keybindings to return to Host?
If this feels a bit limited (you have a few predefined options), there's also evsieve. Which allows you to do a lot more (like selective key pass-through, shortcuts, etc.).

Getting a menu on right-click of the title-bar (but not on background!)
Here's how to do it - in this example, I'm using my sway-menu python script to generate the menu itself. I'm also moving the menu to be near the cursor:

Remotely starting graphical app inside Sway session, when the app needs to run as root, without relying on authentication from within the session
Maybe try my script sway-runner

Using nwg-wrapper for a HUD of help for sway modes
As a geriatric user of sway, I don't always remember the keystrokes in the more esoteric corners of my configuration. I find that my script sway-menu helps with the bulk of the uncommon key bindings. But when I drop into a 'mode' (eg "move" mode) I don't always remember all the clever things I programed into it.

Is it possible to have my Bluetooth controller disconnect automatically on idle?
I wrote a simple bash script bluetooth-timeout to power-off the linux bluetooth stack after 10m of activity. Maybe this would help you.
-
What do I need to install on the Sway spin?
Another source for ideas is to read through the configs and scripts written by others. I offer my own here - there are many others around.

Digital overlay clock?
Here's a script that uses nwg-wrapper to display a countdown - it would be easy to modify it to display a digital clock.

Sway productivity tips
Imma gonna browse through your stuff to see if there's a scratch to a hitherto unnoticed itch that I can snarf. You might like to do the same with my dotfiles - particularly bin/sway-\, *.config/sway** and .config/waybar.
-
Anyone know how to move container to the next *empty* workspace?
You might be able to modify my sway-next-empty-workspace script for that. Maybe see if changing swaymsg to i3-msg does the job.

Password manager solution in Wayland?
I use myclipman to wrap clipman with wayland/swaywm to prevent passwords being cached.
