It's even funnier when I need to use webcord to use Discord inside chromium to get screen sharing working on Wayland on Linux -.-

[–] minimar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Does webcord support screenshare with audio? I tried it myself and it didn't work, I've been using discord-screenaudio.

[–] Eeyore_Syndrome@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Mmm actually thanks for this comment.

Can confirm wasn't sharing audio.

I did setup OBS with YouTube and can stream at 1440p60 with AV1 on my 7900xtx at least. 😔

They're using whatever's built into the OS, because they don't want to be just another Chromium fork

looks at Edge

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but isn't that just more Chromium?

[–] FoxBJK@midwest.social 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You're not misunderstanding at all, and you're exactly right:

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/06/duckduckgo-offers-its-privacy-centered-browser-in-a-windows-open-beta/

Like its Mac browser, DuckDuckGo (DDG) uses "the underlying operating system rendering API" rather than its own forked browser code. That's "a Windows WebView2 call that utilizes the Blink rendering engine underneath," according to DuckDuckGo's blog post. Fittingly, the browser reports itself as Microsoft Edge at most header-scanning sites.

So on Windows its Edge, so its another chrome client?

If they are wanting to be privacy focused, why use Chromium? It's a data hover extraordinaire.

[–] ymhr@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

Isn't that a Chrome/Chromium distinction?
