Hello! Hope I'm filing in the right place. First off, thanks for Clips! Hands-down the best clipboard manager I've used on Linux.
The bug I'm having is that Clips fails to launch in a Wayland session.
Followed the instructions for adding and installing Clips via the elementary remote. I'm using Fedora Silverblue 35, with the default Wayland session. Upon launching clips I get the following errors:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Try one of the following resolutions:
* Please make sure that you have an X server running, and that the DISPLAY environment variable is set correctly
Thanks again for this great app! Please let me know if there's any additional info I need to provide about my session or OS, or if there's anything I should test!
Hi, thanks for reporting this. Though this isn't a problem with Clips but instead of how Wayland works with clipboards and security of it. There's no solutions at the moment.
