Looks like Discord finally fixed Linux screen and audio sharing with Wayland

www.gamingonlinux.com Looks like Discord finally fixed Linux screen and audio sharing with Wayland

A while ago in November, it seems I missed a post from a user in the GamingOnLinux Discord server, noting that the Discord developers finally hooked up screen and audio sharing for Linux with Wayland.

ooc are you unable to get Wayland working properly on your system? Assuming you have some need for discord, does vesktop work for you?
- vesktop works without a problem, with better quality on everything.
  Wayland is one of the worst times i ever had trying to get running at all.
  And i tried getting anno 1404 history edition to run.
  
  Sorry for kind of getting OT but can you give some background on your hardware and distro?
  Have been using Wayland for several years now with no real issues, though there were definite UX shortcomings in the earlier days due to lacking implementations for scenarios like display caputre / screen sharing and so on.

I've been using Wayland for years so this sounded like good news. However this screen share implementation, along with Vesktop's, gives me unusable levels of lag which isn't present in the current Discord implementation. Lucky I guess.
