In the meantime (how many years did it take Discord to update their electron to a not-quite-as-ancient version the last time?), one thing I'd like to see here would be the option to allow listening to global keypresses for certain apps. Yes, that makes security slightly worse I guess but I'd rather have all the other benefits of Wayland working for me while this one isn't working yet.

    I don't get a chance to use Wayland too much (Nvidia sadly), but I swear I had heard KDE came up with something for this. I believe it was if you use non-alphanumeric keys, it's supposed to allow it (because you wouldn't use those in say, a password).

    However, I can't confirm this - nor can I confirm if it'd work with Discord specifically.
