Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/feschber/lan-mouse/issues/359

I'd like to ask, does this software support copying and pasting files between different devices? I seem to be unable to do this.

I haven't used this software yet (been looking at using it as an alternative to Deskflow, was checking issues out of curiosity) BUT if you find it doesn't, you can try an alternative setup by linking both computers via KDE Connect and synchronising your clipboard/sending files that way.

Could you elaborate on your reasoning?

Sure, it's simple. Deskflow doesn't support Niri (yet), Lan Mouse works fine on Niri.

Got it, maybe you should open an issue.

It's already known (actually an issue on Niri's side):
