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 actually had to switch to Wayland to be able to stream with audio on Discord.
WHAT! might I ask if you need any special version of discord? Or does audio sharing just-work on wayland
The official Discord app is halfway there. Sharing a window works with sound, sharing the entire screen doesn't work at all. Webcord can share the entire screen, though I don't know about sound yet.
To be entirely fair, Discord on windows can't share the entire screen with sound either, at least for me.
Yes as far as I know you need special clients for now. I’ve been using discord-screenaudio for a year or so and it works on Wayland. Also with the latest update of Webcord I’ve been able to stream with audio but friends are saying that it doesn’t sound as good.
Other than showing the xdg-portal popup when sharing your screen the experience is essentially the same as the Discord app.
