Currently Slack doesn’t support input CJKV text via IBus, I’ve submitted a ticket and is waiting for the response but still, want to have a forum topic here just in case anyone has the same issue.

slack 3.4.0 doesn’t work too.
Please also considering to add fcitx (input method framework) support.
Thanks a lot
Hi
On Slack 4.0.1, this problem still exist, please consider add CJKV language support.
Thanks
Same here, can’t type any Korean in slack, Ubuntu 18.04.
both IBUS, fcitx didn’t work, only uim worked.
Having the same issue on Xubuntu 19.04.
How is this still not fixed a year and a half later (first reported in March '18)?
The Slack snap is maintained by the Slack developers themselves, so there is not much we can do except ask them to fix it.
Just to make sure; can you install the mattermost-desktop
snap and see if the CJKV text input is supported there? And what about the gnome-logs
and the chromium
snap?
Understood, although I’m not sure where else we can report Slack snap bugs.
Here are my results on Xubuntu 19.04:
mattermost-desktop 4.2.3: works fine.
gnome-logs 3.34.0: does work after typing an ASCII character in the search box first.
chromium 77.0.3865.120: works fine.
Great, thanks for checking this out. This implies that it’s not a snap/snapcraft bug, simply a bug in the Slack snap itself.
The Slack snap has a contact url you should be able to use to report this to them.
I can use input method in chromium snap
Please simply remove the sanpcraft version Slack, and install the deb version. I just solved the problem by re-installing a deb version.
https://snapcraft.io/codium also.

I know, but the problem has not been solved.
