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.

[help] What is the best way to screenshare a single window with audio? (lemmy.kde.social)

Hello guys! sometimes I watch movies with friends over jitsi meet, and in order to share just a single window with just its own audio I use chromium, that has the "share tab" option. However, I'd like a more general solution (I cannot play mkv files on browser, for example). I'd like a compact way that creates a virtual device sharing the window (even if the window gets minimized or hidden behind other windows!) and its audio, without the audio of all other windows (I don't want my notification sounds to be shared too). a quick online search gave me only "complex" answers, that I'll try only if a more convenient way is not available.

[I'm running EndeavourOS KDE Wayland]

Thank to everyone in advance!

On KDE Plasma 6 + Firefox (both Wayland) I can share a window and workaround audio sharing by routing desktop audio to microphone. Vesktop (Discord alternative) supports screenshare w/ audio.
