SUMMARY
After updating to 6.14.0 (and fedora 42), I find that all meta key shortcuts
stopped working. However, xev registers key press, and libinput correctly
recognize the key press as "LEFTMETA" (thus I think it is a KDE problem).
I learned from https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/796489 , and clicking the
setting "Meta is mapped to Left Win" solves the problem completely. This
computer runs Linux only, and the keyboard was never connected to any other
computers, so the change is confusing.
