Fairly recently, I saw an app that served the same purpose as Barrier or Input-leap, allowing you use one computer to control the keyboard and cursor of multiple. I’m fairly certain it was designed with GTK 4, or maybe 3, and it had Wayland support. I’ve had no luck getting input-leap working well on my devices, so if anyone knows what app this was (or any other options) I would really appreciate it.
Update: Despite searching for 15 minutes before posting, I found it seconds later, thanks to DDGs reddit bang. It is lan-mouse. Will leave this up in case this software comes in handy for others.
Thanks for sharing!
I know there’s an answer but there are also inexpensive IP KVMs if you wanna go that route.
I’d love some suggestions. I have a 1440p 32:9 monitor that can act as separate displays, but since Synergy, input-leap, and the other software KVMs don’t work on Wayland, I’m having a bad time :(

Haven’t looked up a lot on this subject but have a look at https://pikvm.org/
I just pre-ordered five of these. lol. Thanks for the rec. Wendell from Level1Techs always has his eye on the coolest stuff.
Thanks for the tip!
This was a long-standing showstopper for me & Wayland. I got rid of my work computer instead, but if I get another one I’ll be sure to test this out.
Similar functionality is actually baked into the kernel!
