touchcursor for ubuntu not working
Hi, so I wanted to set up touchcursor for ubuntu like in windows. I used this repo https://github.com/donniebreve/touchcursor-linux. Did everything as instructed, but it's still not working. I found the keyboard name, edited the config, run make, make install, and restart. Still not working. Tried listing the running services and couldn't find touchcursor, is it not running or something? Has anyone faced the same issue? Please help, I really want it, can't work properly without it.

Liberating the MacBook Air 2013 with Linux
FYI: You can enable them in Gnome with Gnome-Tweaks. Apparently a very recent version of Gnome dropped this functionality for reasons that are beyond my understanding (but that's often the case when I look at the decisions that the Gnome devs make).
However, getting the Control -> Command/Super thing to work is much trickier. The best way is to use this: https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail
However when I tried that, I ran into all kinds of weird behaviours all over the OS. Also, it doesn't work with Wayland.

Everything is gone. EVERYTHING
If the likes of https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail/issues/43 are still a going concern then it's not quite as "everywhere" as one would like, and I presume that issue is a fundamental one (i.e. it doesn't sound like XKeySnail gets first refusal on key events).

Emacs + a nice theme + editing features is awesome! (plus some questions about extra configuration)
And I use XKeySnail to have the basic Emacs keys everywhere. I'm sure there are others, but it does enough to keep me happy.

Would you still recommend EXWM in 2022?
https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail or the fork of it, I forget it's name, will allow you to do the same as exwm's simulation keys with any window manager.
