The question is not whether KDE Connect is available for any given OS (it reportedly works on Windows and MacOS; and also word is that iPhone's integration with Mac beats the pants off any kind of third-party package). Switching the headphones from the phone to the desktop is just one of infinite things that Hammerspoon can do, and if you don't understand that, you're not and never were a power user β€” especially since you "don’t want to learn a scripting API", which is what power users do day in and day out. The fact is that no desktop automation like Hammerspoon is available for Linux, which is a complete failure on part of Linux advocates.

    Unlike yourself? Who straight up said you don't want to deal with a scripting API, while claiming to be a 'power user'? A scripting API is what allows a power user to be a power user, and it was there in MacOS since 1993.

    Again, if you have no idea how you could use Hammerspoon, you're not a power user at all. You're just a kiddie using big words.

    By the way, perhaps you could inform me as to how one sets up their environment to reliably pause playback when the play/pause keyboard key is pressed. Because apparently it's too hard for Linux.
