>if the different implementations doesn't have a common interface it's goodbye to ever having screensharing work for everyone. No, not really. In practice what happens is Discord/Zoom/etc do implement it for the most popular compositors and then the other compositors follow suit if they want to support those applications. You would be complaining even more if they only supported weston because their screencast mechanism is pretty limited, and it would suck if the other ones just copied that. The current "standard" is to just use pipewire and have the display server talk to the pipewire server, most commonly using xdg-desktop-portal. This is obviously outside the scope of Wayland, because any application can talk to pipewire and share/receive a video stream. I don't know about Zoom, but Chromium has support for this in the works, so Discord should get that eventually from updating their Electron: https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/26022 https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/26022
