Hi I use Nobara OS as my daily driver and have used it for quite some time in the past with X11. I now got myself a new pc and wanted to try out Wayland. While it works perfect with nearly anything I get problems with the discord app mainly the screen sharing. It opens up "Portals" and when ever I try to configure it one way or another it never shows any window being streamed.

What exactly are you doing to share / what goes wrong? I recently switched to Wayland and while I'm not using Discord for screen sharing via Signal I first need to select a window* I want to share for some weird reason (it doesn't matter which one though, because:) after that I can select "share screen". Yeah, that makes sense ๐Ÿ™ƒ

*Signal crashes at this point if I'm not the one initiating the call ๐Ÿ‘
