What makes you think that on the main forum for FPC?
--- Quote from: gasensor on April 15, 2024, 06:03:15 pm ---I've also found a couple of bugs and I'm worried that some of them will be ignored if they are released together.

And did you report them?

1. Reported bugs have not been dealt with or even tracked.
2. There are often some small but very affecting bugs, which affect the reputation. For example, in the official official version, it is embarrassing to have bugs such as not being able to open.
3. There are some bugs for Chinese users, resulting in the loss of the vast market of China. For example, in Lazarus, it is not possible to enter Chinese. The shortcut key conflicts with the Chinese input method.

——It seems that no one is in charge of this part.
FP IDE(FP.exe) fails to start, Under win

——Just able to reproduce the glitch, haven't solved the code issue yet. At present, it has been found that only the Chinese version of win10 is affected

I fear that some things got lost in translation.

It is common courtesy that whenever a developer reacts to a post telling/asking if an issue is reported that the issue is reported in a official way by using the bug-tracker.
It is not the responsibility of said developer to report the bug for you or, to "dealt' with (whatever that means in your vision)

As mentioned, if you feel so strong about these issues then please report them at the proper place. The proper place being the official bug-tracker.

Lazarus has its own official bug-tracker.

Repeating the same thing over and over in the forums is not going to auto-magically place these issues at the proper location, proper location being the bug-tracker.
With regards to bugs, the forums are used to seek help, confirmation, find a workaround, or to ask if someone is able to reproduce so that you are able to verify if the issue you are dealing with is legit (and is worth a bug-report in the official bug-tracker).
The only thing I do not know for sure is if the fpc-bulld project uses (or is suppose to use) it's own (separate) bug-tracker.

You can change the keyboard shortcuts as you wish: https://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/IDE_Window:_Editor_Options_Keymap
Many languages have their own diacritical marks, and trying to exclude them would result in no keyboard shortcut being available.

The problem of not being able to input Chinese is not simple. Changing shortcut keys has no effect. Someone has created a program/patch that enhances Lazarus's ability to input Chinese. But I couldn't find the source code.

Unable to submit ISSUS for FPP_BUILD on Gitlab.
The more complicated the operation, the fewer people are willing to provide bug information. The current number of FPC users is not large enough to ignore this factor.
Before the official release of the software, regular/basic functions must be tested.
Gitlab is not easy to use.
The average age of users and developers is getting older, making it increasingly urgent to attract young people
