Discord-Screenshare-Linux VS BetterDiscordAddons

https://github.com/itsfolf/Discord-Screenshare-Linux for discord, and xwayland video bridge for other apps

This will fix screensharing for discord. As for chrome and most electron applications, just enabling pipewire webrtc capture through settings/paramerers should be enough.

Electron isn't actually a big issue for me, the only electron app I use daily is discord and that does actually work with wayland now (these are my parameters btw: --no-sandbox --ignore-gpu-blocklist --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland --enable-features=VaapiVideoDecoder --use-gl=desktop --enable-gpu-rasterization --enable-zero-copy --enable-features=WebRTCPipeWireCapturer, helps a lot with smoothness and with the last parameter and this project, even screensharing works)

The next step is to achieve proper screen/audio sharing via pipewire. Using this hack it's possible to code-inject the logic needed to fetch a stream from pipewire directly into Discord. This combined with running canary with these flags:

Take a look at this. Not tested for Gentoo but it worked for my distro

There is a project to do exactly that at the moment, though it hasn't received updates in some time: https://github.com/fuwwy/Discord-Screenshare-Linux

i have the same problem, the steps didnt fix it. also bdfdb actually has some modal code for shc. devilbro removed it in this commit on github

This is why open source is great, just download it from here: https://github.com/mwittrien/BetterDiscordAddons/blob/0a58ce3a8ea3b9089f6980363bbefecd0a1ec359/Plugins/ShowHiddenChannels/ShowHiddenChannels.plugin.js

The BetterDiscord Plugin "SplitLargeMessages" does exactly what you are trying to do, maybe the Github page of it will help you.

I'm using an edited version of https://github.com/mwittrien/BetterDiscordAddons/tree/master/Themes/BasicBackground with transparency and no background.

A few days ago /u/burgernipples1000 made a post showing off his Classic theme. I figured I'd use some of what he set up for my set up. The things you can see in these screenshots are set up with the Windowblinds skin by burgernipples1000 and the OldTitleBar Discord plugin (note: Discord needs to be patched to work with plugins. I'm using BetterDiscord but I've heard other solutions exist). On top of that I'm also running RetroBar and Open Shell with the ClassicC skin (forgot the source) but that's not in the screenshot.
