PCSX2 Disables Wayland Support
>Not losing all the work every time your windows manager crashes

>remapping keys
>Use xinput to change parameters of their input devices (libinput dropped most configuration options present with evdev)
Up to the compositor.
>Global shortcuts
Also up to the compositor. Was added to xdp in https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/blob/main/data... so it's up to the compositor's xdp impl to provide it. It was created by a KDE dev so I assume KDE implements it at least.

Xdg portal hyprland and launching gui apps
Yeah been having the same issue since I changed to using the unstable branch, supposedly noticed and fixed upstream for a few variants of the problem (different people with different configurations of DE and xdg-* deps installed report the same issue due to timeouts of the other portals)

GTK apps taking ages to startup
Afaik they're libraries that get loaded by xdg-desktop-portal. And for some reason it's loading the wrong one, or loading ones that aren't actually running on the system... or something. 1 3
