TETHERÆ for Linux

The Linux agent ships as a .deb and supports both display stacks: X11 directly, and Wayland through wlroots or the desktop portal on GNOME and KDE. Input is injected through uinput at the kernel level, which is what makes it work identically across those backends.

Worth knowing

Wayland is covered two ways: directly on wlroots compositors, and through the desktop portal on GNOME and KDE. That means one package works across the common desktop stacks without a separate build per environment.
The packaged unit runs as the session user rather than as root. Capture on X11 goes through a shared-memory segment owned by the session, so running as the session user is what makes it work reliably.
