Manjaro and arch apparently depending on whether you use X or Wayland. I was trying to figure out why screen sharing was not working last week and the answer was something pipewire is probably foobarred. Kind of a thing where the answer to "why is X not working" always seems to boil down to following some convoluted process involving the installation of multiple obscure packages, dealing with their arcane configuration files, etc. I half got there in the end. I seem to able to share my desktop via google meets at least. No luck with the discord snap. Though that may have as much to do with pipewire as with snap.
It seems anything using wayland would need to rely on pipewire for a few features; including sharing your screen. At least that is my understanding.
