Hi, I am currently using sway without desktop manager. I am able to use fcitx5 on kitty in sway after setting GLFW_IM_MODULE=ibus, and if that variable is unset the IM is not operable in kitty. Regarding to the concern of the upstream developr, I don't observe performance hit after setting the variable. The only question I am having is that whether we should set that variable in im-config because that seems to be only used in kitty and nowhere else. The followings are the package versions I was testing with: fcitx5 5.0.9-2 kitty 0.19.3-1 sway 1.5.1-2 Best regards, Yao Wei
