GoldenDict's pop-up window doesn't work in KDE/Wayland when you are selecting a word in any app & pressing [Ctrl C, Ctrl C]?
Put "goldendict $(wl-paste)" in a proper .sh script. Add it in your Application Launcher. Set [Ctrl C, Ctrl C] (or whatever) in System Settings->Keyboard->Shortcuts

A screenshit of GoldenDict's pop-up in action showing me, writing this post and calling the pop-up to show the meaning the of 'GoldenDict' in Wikipedia (BG).

#Google Docs: "These actions are unavailable using the Edit menus, but you can still use: Ctrl C for copy, Ctrl X for cut, Ctrl V for paste."
Yeah, sure, but I clicked "paste without formatting".
(Yeah, figured out it's Ctrl Shift V but still Google sucks.)

It's not often that I deploy a quick change to my ~/.vimrc and it so thoroughly improves my life, but setting <Shift> <Tab> to correct the most recent misspelled word has done exactly that, right up there with when I learned about <Ctrl> p and <Ctrl> n in insert mode. #vim

There is a well known bug with Wayland & SDDM on FreeBSD KDE: Ctrl C by keypress abruptly throws you out of your Wayland session. Two things to add to that:
First: KDE and FreeBSD devs are actively looking for FreeBSD help in this, bcs the regular systemd type of logs are obviously not available here for bug tracing. If you can help, please do!
Second: Found a great solutions in the FreeBSD forums. It's a bit hidden in the threads so for clarity's sake:

Hmm my #Fedora 42 is unhappy with yesterdays 6.15.9-201 - falling back to 8-200 is fine.
Got as far as 'basic target' but no further; it's not hung (caps lock and ctrl-alt-del work). Time to break out some systemd options to get some more debug. Nothing hit the logs on disk.

Why doesn't Apple's TV app not remember my language setting? Why does it pop up a second "are you over 16?" box in another part of my screen after I confirm the first "are you over 16?" popup? Why doesn't it have a hotkey for fullscreen mode? F, ctrl-F... no. I need to click the green title bar blob every time.
