From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Wayland and audio is fixed, but only on the canary branch for the moment, this isnt lazy either, they changed the whole screenshare flow to suit linux's permission prompts

What about video acceleration though? Cause last time i tried it as soon as I moved the camera the screen share's framerate would drop like crazy making it essentially useless. On AMD anyway

I'll prob check later today cause im interested

Is this only for wayland or does it extend to x11?

[–] Blisterexe@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

video worked on x11 before, audio working is new to both

Not entirely, there is an issue with sharing when you have multiple monitors. If you try to share a monitor, it shares all monitors stitched together
