Before you do that, can you fix screen sharing on Linux?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I haven't used Discord in a while so YMMV but I used to use WebCord and screen sharing worked pretty well IIRC. It uses an up-to-date Electron version which has better support for modern desktop Linux protocols. There are probably plenty of other alternative clients that just repackage the web app with better Linux support. There's also gtkcord4 which is a native Gtk client, though definitely not as polished as the official client.

It does support it, but not the audio :/

Try vesktop!

Oh wow, it actually works! Thanks! But there are issues with EasyEffects (it’s being worked on) and low framerates during streaming (also being worked on). But it does work
