The reality of Wayland input methods in 2022 (2022)
I also know input methods work great in Ubuntu (Gnome Wayland) because Gnome supports ibus.
But the article is specifically about incompatibility of input methods among different DEs: Gnome, KDE, wlroots-based environments such as Sway and Hyprland.
After many years, ibus still doesn’t work with wlroots: https://github.com/ibus/ibus/issues/2182
The list of recommended IMEs on Sway are all WIP: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Useful-add-ons-for-sway#...
Most people use fcitx5 with Sway because fcitx5 and Sway both support input method unstable v2. But the article explains that v2 is still not universally supported among wayland DEs, and that’s why it’s problematic.

Fedora 38 Beta Released
The F38 beta is currently affected by two (mostly gaming-related) issues that you should be aware of: - https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2678 -> a lot of SDL-based games have their fullscreen mode broken. The issue is bisected. - https://github.com/ibus/ibus/issues/2480 -> Keyboard input sometimes gets stuck. Issue has already been identified and we're waiting for an ibus release.

I created a (Linux) script to easily type Unicode math everywhere.
There is also an ibus table for LaTeX (including a preview popup): https://github.com/ibus/ibus/wiki/LaTeX

A Mathematical Keyboard Layout (2018)
I wrote a small plugin for Sublime Text that allows me to enter common math symbols as unicode characters by virtue of a selection popup. So, for instance, I hit Ctrl+m, type e.g. "subs" (for subset – it does fuzzy matching), hit enter et voilà, I get "⊂".
While it works very nicely, it's of course unavailable outside Sublime, so I've been looking for alternatives and came across the following projects:

I'm tired of this anti-Wayland horseshit
At this point what are the problems with Wayland that haven't been worked around or papered over? The only thing I can think of is colour management which is still unsolved but being actively worked on. You mentioned IMEs below which is something I've also found to be broken but this issue probably lies with the IME and not with Wayland. For example ibus doesn't yet support v2 of the input method protocol.

One of the joys of using Linux is learning and figuring things out. What have you learned lately that you'd like to share?
I would assume that they just mean rofi which is an app launcher that can be configured to do a lot more than just that. It can work as an emoji picker, calculator, and other general menus

Thank you for five years of rofimoji!
Last week, I released version 6.0.0 with support for a new grid-like theme and some smaller stuff.

What's a good emoji picker?
I use Rofimoji. It works on Wayland and Xorg.
-
emocli is a command-line interface for emoji selection with gitmoji support
For these other emoji characters, one would typically need to turn to a helper application like the KDE Emoji Picker, the Gnome Emoji Selector, or a web browser with Emojipedia. There are also extensions for the rofi utility (rofi-emoji and rofimoji) which allow a lightweight solution for those not in full desktop environments.

Quick tip: easy rofi emoji picker for your i3 setup
Well recently I found rofimoji and it does exactly what the Windows picker does, but better - it's got great aliases so you can look up what you want without knowing exactly its name, etc. Somehow it's even in the community repository.

Things I would love to see in kde plasma.
Emoji: Windows 10 has the most robust emoji picker there is. It opens with meta+. similar to plasma but that's where the similarity ends. Windows emoji picker doesn't copy paste emoji, it writes to the open window. User can input as many emoji as they like without pressing ctrl+v every time. I have tried many alternatives, Emote, rofimoji,x11-emoji-picker. Among those x11-emoji-picker is closest to windows but has a lot of bugs. I have had system freeze🥶🥶, no keyboard shortcut not working, frame drops🥴🥴🥴.

Ask HN: Tools you have made for yourself?
That was several years ago, and now [rofimoji](https://github.com/fdw/rofimoji) can do all UTF-8 characters (and custom ones), works on Wayland and is packaged for some distros. I'm so happy how my tiny project turned out and how many people helped with PRs and issues.
Professionally, I (and the whole team) lost track of our deployed artifacts, as we're not on a release schedule but also not really on continuous deployment. Mainly, we released when someone noticed that a release has been running stably on staging for a while.

How do I insert symbols in text files? Uses nano as default editor, also have atom installed.
I use Rofimoji in a keyboard shortcut. It's pretty much an emoticon keyboard.
