I installed fcitx5 on solus, But I can just use it under terminal, but it's invalid with browser as firefox or chrome. I set these relate environment properly, and I can run it success in Fedora36. systemd.service couldn't launch fcitx5 properly, I compared with command fcitx5-diagnose output, I cann't see firefox or chrome here:

The issue has fixed https://github.com/fcitx/fcitx5/issues/855. For I missed installed fcitx5-gtk before.

Hi there, I'm the maintainer of the Chinese input method engines on Solus. Apologize for the inconvenience. fcitx5 has been on my list of packages to investigate. I didn't pursue it because I didn't know how often people use it (I don't - ibus-rime + 五笔 is good enough for me). I'll try to give it a shot in a week or two.
