Am I going to have a bad time trying to switch to Wayland? I just use discord, Spotify, steam, some basic steam games, Krita, and emacs
Screen sharing on Discord with Wayland kinda sucks at the moment, but I believe that's moreso Discord's fault for not updating Electron or something along those lines.
If you really need screenshare there were some options with xwaylandvideobridge, a custom client, or just running it via the browser
on chromium screen sharing works flawlessly though.
Yes, but Discord is using a really old version afaik.
There's Armcord which does support screen sharing (and all sorts of neat features).
why even install multiple copies of chromium in the first place if all this electron proprietary garbage comes with virtually no extra features compared to the web version, in the first place?
Because Armcord inserts extra features into the app.
