      That’s my experience on my machine running Ubuntu. The reason was that Discord ran in their snap sandbox, while my browser is not sandboxed. This leads to the sandboxes app not working together with xdg-desktop-portal, which means that screen sharing doesn’t work.

        It’s not a laptop. Not sure why that would matter though. The browser version works fine. If it didn’t, that wouldn’t be my pc’s fault, it would be discord’s.

          I obviously meant any computer besides phones. Never heard of anyone that had less problems on the website, that’s just why I was wondering…

            Well, it’s a home built machine. Like all computers it has random weird issues. Just was trying to say that sometimes the unexpected thing will work better. Because had I not experienced that with discord, I would’ve assumed the desktop app should be better.
