I haven't touched Wayland because of a lack of window control tools, but don't know if the landscape has changed. Specifically to replace autokey, xdotool, wmctrl. I know kdotool exists for kde only which would cover most of xdotool, but I don't know about text expansion (autokey). Isn't most of Wayland's keybindings just remapping and not macros? I've written my own code to read dev files with elevated permissions so I think I'm fine with macros, but that might be too much work for other people. Would appreciate some Wayland users experience.

For text expansion, I'm using Espanso on KDE Wayland. The text expansion works fine, but its ability to paste image files only works in certain apps for reasons I haven't gotten to the bottom of yet.
