How is Matrix's screen-sharing quality? (self.matrix)

A frequent activity that my closest friend group likes to do is spectate on single-player games played by one person via screen-sharing (and we're mostly introverted so no Twitch for us lol; plus, that's Amazon's playground anyway). This is where Discord unfortunately reigns supreme: its screen-sharing is somehow absolutely fantastic and near-flawless.

I recently learned that Matrix has screen-sharing through this Discord age-verification article, which may be enough to finally make the push for my friends to consider Matrix; how is it in comparison? Does anyone here very frequently use it?

I have recently set up my own Matrix server. I have played around with the screen sharing, and it appears to work quite well. Very high quality.

This may be because my server is very small and few people were using it. I haven't played around with it on larger servers.
