But your link does not address my issue, you are talking about data leaks. But the global shortcuts on Wayland has nothing to do with Discord dataleaks that happened in the past. You are conflicting two different topics here. Click the link I provided (its not a search link, its an actual result) and read through to understand what global shortcuts are.

    I'm not qualified to address your issue.

    This has nothing to do with data leaks. Global shortcuts just mean that if you focus on a different application, then you can still control the application in background with shortcuts like Ctrl+1. That's all. This changes nothing about data collection or data leaking.

    Bro. Stop. It's called mockery. A joke at the expense of others. A denigrating remark to the detriment of a person or entity, often (but not necessarily) based on real observations.

    Obviously, global shortcuts probably won't leak personal data, I'm not a fucking moron. But Discord has had several high-profile massive data leaks, with some, frankly, bullshit official responses. It's fun to mock them by assuming there will be another.

    I guess I'm sorry that your life is bereft of whimsy.
