I can't work without talon. I had no idea it would have so many issues on Wayland.

However, wouldn't talon still work normally under xwayland?

    Things such as querying what windows are available, their titles, what window is focused, emulating keyboard input, querying for the mouse position.

    It might run, but these features wouldn't work, by design.

    That would mean essentially everything. You can't switch focus, can't type text, can't use mousegrid...

    Talon is not open source so I have no idea how they'll work around it either...
