Input leap was forked two years ago and the Readme still says "we hope to have a release ready very soon", which doesn't sound very hopeful. Too bad, Synergy was always a very useful project.
This announcement was only added to the README in early October[1]. In the meantime you can of course compile it yourself/grab a build from GH actions. I'm sure they would appreciate the testing, especially leading up to release :-)

I haven’t tried Synergy. barrier and input-leap were useless for me as they don’t capture “ctrl-alt” so my crucial “open a terminal” shortcut always opens it on the primary computer. Maybe Wayland is to blame?
Didn't have any problems with X11 and various computers - so maybe it really is Wayland-specific?

You might have to change the modifier keys on the server config. I have a Linux server and MacOS client, a few minutes trial and error fiddling those settings until I got it all working.

Thanks! I had thought I remembered Synergy being open source. I haven't used it in a while, so it's good to know there's alternatives.
