Comment (by victornoel):

 Hi,

 For the record, there is now an API for screen grabbing in freedesktop:
 https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-
 portal/blob/master/data/org.freedesktop.portal.ScreenCast.xml

 It is already implemented in Gnome/mutter under wayland using Pipewire,
 see https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Mutter/RemoteDesktop for details.

 I think this issue should be renamed and reopened to "Support screen
 grabbing under Wayland".
