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.

on discord on linux you can't screenshare with desktop audio, I think this might be already fixed in newer electron versions (but discord is closed source and has not updated their electron in a long time)
That absolutely sucks :| Thankyou for the detail.
As a workaround, you could use OBS and use OBS's virtual camera so Discord is streaming what it thinks is a camera, and set up whatever you want to share on your desktop through OBS.
