It's my fault. I use the AUR package vscodium, which does not read the codium-flags.conf.

Oh, ya. I have to add that support...

Passing "--enable-wayland-ime" fixes this problem.

UPDATE: It's my fault. I use the AUR package vscodium, which does not read the codium-flags.conf.

It is strange. I put two argument --ozone-platform-hint=auto --enable-wayland-ime into codium-flags.conf, this makes Fcitx5 unsable in wayland.

But when I pass these two arguments in terminal like codium --ozone-platform-hint=auto --enable-wayland-ime, I'm able to use input method.
