From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Screensharing is broken, pretty good other than that
It’s some apps still being broken, not the desktop. Screen sharing works perfectly fine for me in Slack, Teams (unofficial app by IsmaelMartinez) and web browsers. There’s also X11 to Wayland video bridge that can be used as temporary workaround in unsupported apps.
This is good to know. It is one of the things that most interest me.
Discord is still broken even with that bridge. But that's the only I found not working so far.
Give Vesktop a try. It's a clone of discord and they say they support wayland for streaming just fine. It works fine but I haven't tried the wayland streaming thing yet.
I have it all installed. Discord native, discord flatkpak, vesktop. With vesktop you loose microphone sound auto detection and krysp. But yeah, sharing video works there also on the browser like firefox, but it's a tradeoff of the rest.
No idea what krysp is, but audio is flawless in my case. Granted, only really used on x11 so far. I use vesktop flatpak on debian sid.
@devfuuu @jyte, try installing Discord with Snap (I had the same problem with a game - Veloren and Snap was the solution, aside the actual program, it downloads also all other dependencies, even if there are already installed on the PC and uses that one) 😁 (please report your success)
Maybe it works better than flatpak? It's basically the same thing. But I'm not gonna install snap just to try it.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
After a long time waiting, OBS seems to work with Wayland now. I use that to stream via Discord. Maybe worth a try?
