Generals.io – Capture enemy generals to defeat them
Yes, approximately. In X11 at least, the hardware codes are called keycodes, and the human readable names are called keysyms. Example ofuse of the XkbKeycodeToKeysym function in use: https://github.com/anko/xkbcat/blob/8abc3402cb679027a3bd0313...
Keysyms don't necessarily strictly match "key location"; keyboards are allowed to output whatever codes they want for whatever key they want (see e.g. QMK firmware; often used in custom keyboards to do complex conditional key remapping), but they're relatively consistent between common keys on most keyboards, and consistent on the same keyboard even if you switch keyboard layouts in software, or have some custom firmware which functionality is stateful.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10 Plans for Wayland and Xorg Server
>I don't know a single person that has ever fallen victim to a virus or malware on linux, and I've been using it almost exclusively for the past 20 years. If it was a threat vector, it clearly wasn't a very big issue.
So: no true Linux user succumbs to malwares and no true Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge.
Putting that aside, it doesn't take much effort to find an example of X11 keylogger that requires zero superuser privilege and zero explicit permission granting by the user. Here, the first result from DDGing "x11 keylogger": https://github.com/anko/xkbcat
It is hard to believe this has not occurred in the wild. If such attack really hasn't occurred before in the Linux world, I would rather use the unpopularity of Linux desktop as my justification.

do you run an Anti Virus on your Linux system?
i think you’re misunderstanding what a virus is or what it is a capable of. sudo (just like every other piece of software) can be exploited, which would allow anything (such as a malicious program) to get root privilege with no user input. there are also plenty of other approaches for viruses to take that wouldn’t require root, like X11 keylogging, and user namespace exploits just to name a few. being selective with what you run with sudo can help a lot don’t get me wrong, but it definitely isn’t some silver bullet. think of it like how windows can get malware without ever running something as administrator

What are the benefit(s) of using Wayland over Xorg?
For now, the focus is getting Wayland on par with Xorg. However, there are a number of infrastructure improvements behind the scenes that make it superior to Xorg. For example, applications can no longer silently capture keystrokes without elevated privileges. Demo.

Anyone using obs in kde wayland ?
It's a bit more complicated than that, but essentially yes, see e.g. xkbcat and some other of the keyloggers linked there.
- There is no noticeable difference between X11 and Wayland

Fedora 34 Gnome 40 Wayland vs X11
Here's a keylogger i found while googling: https://github.com/anko/xkbcat

Secure way to run a proprietary software?
X11 provides no mechanism for keeping applications from reading potentially sensitive input. Consider this simple, 100-line program to log keystrokes, and consider what Zoom might be doing with this kind of power.

What Is Wrong with Enterprise Linux
I fully agree, moreover this:
> Rolling release distributions like OpenSUSE Tumbleweed follow upstream much more closely while still maintaining stability through thorough automated testing
Shows the author hasn't used Tumbleweed for any reasonable amount of time himself[0][1][2]. I daily drove it for a short while before moving to Fedora.

MailSpring Compatibility?
/u/protonmail is the a reason why there's been no effort on this front? It appears that it comes down to some sort of handshake issue but I can't imagine this is that hard to fix.

JMAP – a much needed modern email open standard
I was hopeful that https://www.nylas.com/ would be the de-facto "adapter" placing a common API surface on top of the major providers and dragging them into a modern-API world. They even had an email client of their own as a proof of concept (forked by one of the original authors as https://github.com/Foundry376/Mailspring - and its reusable core https://github.com/Foundry376/Mailspring-Sync may be interesting to many here). But they've pivoted towards making their API only available behind B2B contracts and opaque pricing, and primarily used for corporate email monitoring and CRM use cases - perhaps because security and privacy considerations are nontrivial. I'm still rooting for them but it's a shadow of what it could have been.

The Future of Thunderbird: Why We’re Rebuilding from the Ground Up
I love Mailspring, it's modern and open source: https://getmailspring.com/
The UI uses Electron, but the actual sync engine is in C++, so it's pretty fast.

linux: choosing a well-supported and future proof email desktop client?
Mailspring is quite nice. It also has a paid version and is actively updated so I think it's likely to stick around for awhile.
-
Cross Platform Email Client
Mailspring, which is open source, is currently my recommendation for a desktop email client.
-
Which email client do you prefer and why?
Mailspring. Open-source and fully local, but an optional account and optional subscription for premium cloud-based features. Thunderbird was too cluttered and Geary, although I really wanted to like it, was just too minimal.
What are some alternatives?
Keylogger - A simple keylogger for Windows, Linux and Mac
Mailspring-Libre - (archived) Mailspring Libre build – aiming at removing Mailspring's dependecy on a central server
DuckCpp - Multifunctional keylogger using WinAPI and libcurl
