Am I going to have a bad time trying to switch to Wayland? I just use discord, Spotify, steam, some basic steam games, Krita, and emacs
Screen sharing on Discord with Wayland kinda sucks at the moment, but I believe that's moreso Discord's fault for not updating Electron or something along those lines.
If you really need screenshare there were some options with xwaylandvideobridge, a custom client, or just running it via the browser
on chromium screen sharing works flawlessly though.
Yes, but Discord is using a really old version afaik.
There's Armcord which does support screen sharing (and all sorts of neat features).
why even install multiple copies of chromium in the first place if all this electron proprietary garbage comes with virtually no extra features compared to the web version, in the first place?
Because Armcord inserts extra features into the app.
If you use scaling some apps can be blurry. Oh and screen sharing doesn't work on discord cause they refuse to update their app. Other than that it was smooth sailing for me
Wow that's good news, I'll have to give it a shot
Both teamviewer and rustdesk are acting funny as hell since the upgrade. Seriously buggy for me. Screen locks up. Keyboard and mouse also act funny. tiger vnc is ok at the moment. That’s my biggest takeaway. It’s been hard to do stuff remotely with Wayland enabled.
Am I going to have a bad time
yes, don't listen to the people with narrow use-cases that "work perfectly for them"
