Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/casualsnek/onthespot/issues/152
When attempting to launch the onthespot_gui application, it fails with an error related to the Qt platform plugin. The application cannot start because the "wayland" Qt platform plugin could not be found. This issue occurs while using OnTheSpot version 0.5 on Fedora 39.
Error:
OTS Version : 0.5
Config version: 0.5

This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

I've also tried to force xcb but the issue persists:
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb onthespot_gui

Of my releases here (v0.6) would you prefer an appimage or a binary. Neither are built with wayland support but I could build whichever you prefer.
Since you look like an experienced developer you could just run the build scripts yourself, they should be pretty easy to follow.

As a wayland user aswell, i'd love to have a wayland compatible build myself!
I don't care wether it's appiamge or binary :)

I added wayland libraries to the 0.6.1 builds https://github.com/justin025/onthespot/releases/tag/v0.6.1
