How to start an application from a KWin script?
I am trying to replicate https://github.com/mkropat/jumpapp as a KWin script. Since I decided to use Wayland instead of X11, where jumpapp does not work.

You're using function keys wrong
Maybe checkout https://vickychijwani.me/blazing-fast-application-switching-.... Personally I use jumpapp which does more or less the same thing. https://github.com/mkropat/jumpapp.

Name a program that doesn't get enough love!
jumpapp - its a run-or-raise app. Basically, you set up a shortcut for something that you use often (an IDE, a browser, a terminal etc). Once you activate the shortcut, jumpapp will either run the app if its running, or start the app if it isn't.

What's your favorite feature you implemented on your keymap? (can be anything!)
This may be off-topic, but would you mind sharing your AutoHotKey script? I'm used to Jumpapp on Linux, but I was never able to recreate the same behavior on Windows.

Trying to set up Cerebro on Fedora
In my quest to make my GNOME look and feel like a Mac (I'm sorry, i love the look), I've been trying to set up Cerebro app I use the prebuilt AppImage executable, but it won't work. At first, I was having an error about libva drivers, which I managed to solve, so I can at least run the AppIMage initially, but all it does is open Cerebro to my top bar and the options menu. Whenever I click on "toggle cerebro" (as shown in the screenshot below) i get the following error:
