Hi everyone!

I’m excited to share a project I’ve been working on: **LinuxTask**.

It’s a minimalist macro recorder for Linux (specifically optimized for Hyprland/CachyOS) that actually works on Wayland.

**Key Features:**

  • Global Hotkeys (F8/F9) that work even when the app is minimized.
  • 100Hz sampling rate for ultra-smooth mouse playback (no teleporting).
  • Uses `evdev` to bypass Wayland security restrictions for global input.
  • Absolute cursor positioning via `hyprctl`.
  • Customizable hotkeys and AFK/Loop mode.

If you ever missed TinyTask on Linux or need a reliable tool for gaming automation (like AFK farming) or repetitive tasks, give it a try!

Check it out on GitHub: GitHub - JADRT22/LinuxTask: Minimalist macro recorder for Linux (X11 & Wayland), optimized for Hyprland.

Feedback is very welcome!

This looks like a really useful project for Wayland users. Lightweight macro recorders are much harder to find on Wayland than on X11, so having a tool that supports recording and replaying both keyboard and mouse input, along with features like configurable hotkeys and loop mode, fills a real gap. Tinytask modern automation software for keyboard and mouse recording and playing in loops. Tinytask Mailerchrome extension allows multiple Emails sending from Gmail as a human behavior. TinyTask Pro It’ll be interesting to see how it evolves, especially if future versions add more robust window-aware actions or conditional automation while keeping the same minimal approach.
