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.

I've been using Hyprland for about 2 years. I did have some issues with screen sharing (teams, discord) and some steam games (non native, with proton) need some extra launch parameters, but they all work now. Over time I was able to fix all the little issues. For me Hyprland is a daily driver, but I like to tinker. I can see how this is not for everyone.
May I ask how you solved the screen sharing problems? Also do you use keybinds for apps such as discord? When I tried Hyprland none of them were working.
Hey, sorry for the late reply.
I remember installing
xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland
instead ofxdg-desktop-portal
, and in myhyprland
config I have:I can't remember everything I tried... I didn't keep track. I've been using this setup for close to 3 years now...
I know that for Ferdium I used the extra params
--ozone-platform=wayland --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform
, but I think it doesn't need them anymore (I use it for Teams and other chat apps with screensharing).For Discord I use Webcord, which works just fine, also with screen sharing, I didn't have to do anything.
When it comes to key bindings, here's my working setup:
