Keyboard Maestro 11
Unfortunately, the StreamDeck doesn't emulate a standard USB HID device, so it needs a driver running in the background to detect button presses and do things like generate keystrokes or call Keyboard Maestro macros.
There's streamdeck-ui (https://timothycrosley.github.io/streamdeck-ui/), which is an open-source alternative, but it at first glance it seems to be only for Linux).
There are a bunch of other macro/launcher pads like the StreamDeck that DO act as standard USB HID keyboards, though, and those should work fine with Keyboard Maestro using keyboard shortcut triggers.

Help please
what OS do you have on ur pi? from what i know stream deck is only compatible with Windows and MacOS, you’d have to do a special setup to use it with Linux

This keyboard would be awesome for Bitwig. Or audio production in general
Not sure if that keyboard has open source editing software, but Elgato Stream Deck certainly does.

Ask HN: What lesser-known accessories do you use with your computer?
tbh I didn’t have a problem with the official Windows app so I can’t say anything about that much
But under Linux I used this
https://timothycrosley.github.io/streamdeck-ui/
Works pretty well by my experience under Debian. There are some edge cases like Wayland (see the issues) though.

Linux Streamers, What Tips, Tricks, and Tools Do You Use?
The only tip I'd have would be for Wayland users who suffer from not having global shortcuts work with OBS: obs-cli with obs-websocket have you covered. Set a keyboard shortcut or Stream Deck button (using streamdeck-ui) to execute an obs-cli command and you're done.

Elgato Keylights
Anyone have any experience with the ElGato Keylights on Linux? I use Ubuntu 22.04. I have stream deck that I use with Streamdeck-ui and I wanted to know if anyone uses these lights with a cli program that would allow me to control them? On, Off, brightness, etc?
- No Google, for the last time, I don't want that thing

Ask HN: What sub $200 product improved your 2022
Thanks for the info, I wasn't aware of the Stream Deck. It is also supported on Linux by Open Source library and app. Very tempting.

Wayland vs. X – Overview
libei looks useful. But IDK why libei is necessary to run Barrier with Wayland?
For client systems, couldn't there just be a virtual /dev/inputXYZ that Barrier forwards events through
And for host systems, it looks like xev only logs input events when the window is focused.
Is xeyes still broken on Wayland, and how to fix it so that it would work with Barrier?
With Barrier, when the mouse cursor reaches a screen boundary, the keyboard and mouse input are then passed to a different X session on another box until the cursor again crosses a screen boundary rule.
Barrier is a fork of Synergy's open core: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier

KVM Switch for Gaming and WFH
I have a similar gaming/WFH setup (2 monitors at 1440p 144hz) and I’ve been using Barrier instead of a physical kvm, and it works really well. Not sure if you’re open to a software kvm but if you are, I’m happy to answer any questions about it if you have any.

Autoswap Keyboard Layouts based on Operating System
Have you tried Barrier? I casually used it to swap between my main rig and my MBP. Took a minute to get it setup but once I sorted it all out it worked pretty well. It has some settings and tweaks built in to address some of the layout issues you mentioned...
