There’s no great software-based KVM solution for macOS. Even Apple’s solution is buggy. @Synergy_App is the best one. Not free of bugs tho.

@InWayneMode Great setup 😄

My workstation setup. Might be too many monitors My PC has 2 monitors on the right hand side and my laptop has 1. I use Synergy to use the keyboard and mouse to go back and forth between the PC and laptop The 2nd screen from the right Im using my social media scheduler testing the bulk schedule. Saves so much time!

@BrandonDevs @S3MTX_ Nice setup, and yes you can use Synergy in this setup. With VPNs they generally block LAN connections by default, but can be configured to allow LAN (either by a split tunnel or a allow LAN setting).

@S3MTX_ I use this. I used it with VPN and without. symless.com/synergy

Anyone know the best method to connect 1 keyboard & 1 mouse to 2 computers? I know KVM switches are a thing, but I don’t want an either or, I want both, as if my old PC is just a third monitor Tried ShareMouse but I also use VPNs & I’m pretty sure they mess with it

Which number is your current level of setup?

@olu_tayormi @vik_linho Thanks for the mention, and of course for your support 😁

@vik_linho You know the cool thing with this? I use a mouse and keyboard to control all the screens. I use an app called Synergy to do this.

Now I can use my Mac and Windows on the same screen while watching YouTube/anime.

@jimshew Good spot, and thank you sharing 😄

I don't know who needs to hear this right now, but: Using the Fn+K (scroll lock) on your Thinkpad is why @Synergy_App isn't moving to your other machines.

@Alf_Motion A bit of eye candy on switching? 😆 We have thought on this, but not had an opportunity to do it (yet)

@Synergy_App Love how clean Synergy is looking 👏 — quick thought: animated UI transitions could really make those icons feel smoother and more engaging for users. That little polish goes a long way 🚀

@ShortBurstID Thank you the recommendation and support 😍 Out of curiosity, what is your Synergy use case?

If you use multiple monitors across different platforms like Windows, Mac, or Linux, you should try this app @Synergy_App it lets you control everything with a single keyboard and mouse. 🥰

@_Serverschrank Hi 👋 Is this issue happening before or after login? If after login, might be able to create a startup delay using the Shortcuts app on Mac.

@Synergy_App Is it possible for you to implement some kind of connection delay so that the interfaces can start up properly? On my Mac, the Wi-Fi interface takes a while, and I always get the error message popup after starting.

Synergy 1 is still maintained and in development for those who like the classic GUI. Or you can try Synergy 3 for the modern GUI experience!

@ShortBurstID Thanks for being a customer!

I forgot how fun it is using @Synergy_App between Windows and Mac. Can’t believe I can still download and register Version 1 Pro after all these years!

"how do people with such desk set ups control multiple monitors with one keyboard?" Thanks @grok :D

@SIGKITTEN @trashpandaemoji Depends on whether you are using xorg/x11 or Wayland - Clipboard works for xorg, but not for Wayland

@Synergy_App @trashpandaemoji cool, ill check it out, does clipboard work in hyprland?

i setup something really cool today and I don't think I've ever had a better setup in my life. 3 computers seamlessly operated with the same mouse and keyboard. Center is my mac studio. I just move the mouse cursor past the bottom edge, and I'm seamlessly in Omarchy on the PC, I move it left, goes to the macbook pro. I tried a bunch of kvm-y things but none of them worked with Hyprland. Except 1 - lan-mouse. The gui is very buggy but once you set it up as a daemon with the config file, it works great!

@AlGMacD This issue has been resolved, and we are releasing an update on Monday. If you want to try a dev build (before release), please raise a ticket and our support team will send over a download link 😀

@SIGKITTEN @trashpandaemoji We have one for Synergy 1, and for Synergy 3 we are releasing a flatpak on Monday 😀

@Synergy_App @trashpandaemoji never mind, you guys dont even have an arch package

@i_am_realone Could try our application Synergy? 😀 We support Windows, but also macOS and Linux in case you have more than just Windows computers in your setup

Is there another mouse sharing solution that's better than Mouse Without Borders for Windows? Please tell me if you know any.
