Description

Shortcuts starting with the Option (⌥) key (for example ⌥+M) to open Maccy don't work anymore (nothing happens) since updating to macOS 15 Sequoia.

Apparently this is an intentional change by Apple devs to increase security.

Other people and apps are apparently also impacted by this breaking change.

If I understand the technicalities correctly, this can be fixed in the non-sandboxed version of Maccy but not for the sandboxed version of Maccy (App Store).

Steps to Reproduce

Set the keyboard shortcut to open Maccy to Option (⌥) + some other key on macOS Sequoia 15.0
Try the shortcut
Nothing happens (normally Maccy should open)
