Screen sharing and recording are a pain point because the default security model of Wayland doesn't allow applications to see what other applications are rendering. That said, Pipewire is a working solution for Zoom today on Wayland. I'm not on Ubuntu, so I don't know if the Chromium package they ship has Pipewire enabled by default, but my guess is that they do. I use a small extension to automatically default Zoom to opening calls in the browser (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/zoom-redirector/fmaeeiocbalinknpdkjjfogehkdcbkcd https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/zoom-redirector/fm...) and there I can share screens just fine (Full desktop, application window only, etc - For the most part, things work fine). I'd give it another 12 months if you don't want to have to think about it at all, but I'll be honest, Arch/Gnome/Wayland is the happiest I've EVER been on desktop linux.
