I don't use Discord much anymore and haven't used this program but this looks like a nice 3rd party Discord flatpak. It supports screensharing on Wayland. Just thought I'd share with the community

Vesktop is great. However, with the Discord IPO looming (https://www.ign.com/articles/discord-is-reportedly-exploring-an-ipo) it is definitely time to abandon ship.

I've been wanting to abandon ship for years, but sadly convincing the average gamer is another story.

Which is the main reason most of us are stuck using it if we want to talk to friends.

Best alternative I've found is Signal for VoIP and parsec for game streaming
