Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    Is there something you lack in Wayland but have in xorg? (lemmy.world)

    I've used Wayland pretty much exclusively for about 2 years. The only problem I've had is discord screensharing not working, but I just use OBS' virtual webcam for that anyway because screensharing always crashed discord for me on X11 anyway.

    Heya could you share how you do this trick to screen share ? Would it work on MS Teams?

    [–] turbowafflz@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

    I think all you need to install is OBS studio and v4l2loopback both of which your distribution probably has packages for. Then you just make a scene, add either the "Screen Capture (PipeWire)" or "Window Capture (PipeWire)" sources to it and click the "Start Virtual Camera" button. Anything that supports a webcam will just see it as another camera on your computer you can use.
