How do I configure xdg-desktop-portal so that it works and keeps working?
It comes with a systemd service file https://github.com/emersion/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr/blob/master/contrib/systemd/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr.service.in that you can use

How do you guys screenshare Sway on Discord?
Are you running the Wayland envvar for Firefox, MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1? Because the rest of your setup sounds very similar to my (working) setup. You could also run the Python test script included with xdg-desktop-portal-wlr (bottom of this page) as a sanity check that nothing's going wrong there

Tearing updates got merged into Wayland! Now we only have to wait for implementations in KWin and Gnome!
I believe that a lot of the current approach to fixing it is something similar to xdg-desktop-portal. That's for signaling for screenshots, but a similar idea could work for listening for key events without being focused, apparently. It bypasses the standard Wayland system completely and uses D-Bus and Pipewire instead. I'm not too familiar with the details myself, though.

PSA: Steam Link (Remote Play) works on Wayland with AMD GPU
I don't know which of the xdg-desktop-portal backends you would need for gamescope, but xdg-desktop-portal-wlr has a config file which it reads where you can set the preferred output and set the chooser_type to none. That makes it skip the screen selector for me.

- Steam Download Speed Slow on Linux Compared to Windows 10/11

Very slow download speeds in Linux but normal in Windows..
Anyone else noticing this? I don't believe I'm going insane. For a while now my download speeds, regardless of chosen server, are always slower in the Linux client compared to in Windows. Is the only appropriate place to post about this here -> https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Steam-for-Linux ? Would be great to know that I'm not the only one being affected.
- Steam ignores the "Later" button on client updates

steam can't load
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues Its seems to be a problem happening only to Nvidia GPUs. Not only Mint but many other distros A temporary solution is to open Steam from the Terminal using "steam -vgui"

Stable update today - Please read the forum post
I just spent a few hours working on that problem that Steam takes very long to appear. I did not have xdg-desktop-portal-gnome installed, and Steam is the only application that has that problem, so it's not the one from the update forum post. What my (and probably your) problem is, is this one: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9780. Some bug where CEF gets stuck in a loop. When I executed steam --reset an error about steamwebhelper and glibc appeared like 50 times, each taking a few seconds.
