I agree that Wayland has massive accessibility deficits but it certainly doesn't help if the talonvoice developer shuts down attempts to improve the situation with "Wayland is not supported.".

I agree, but this seems like a matter of poor communication. It doesn't sound like the Talon dev knows that actual members of the KDE team are earnestly interested in making Talon work with their Wayland compositor. It sounds like they assumed it's just another user asking for Wayland support without any way of helping to make it happen.

The Talon and KDE devs should open a direct line of communication to actually get this going.
