After applying all recommendations from the article it still doesn't work, but I have found one setting different in my system than on every doc/article I found

XDG_DESKTOP_PORTAL is "sway:wlroots" in mine while everyone talks about "sway" value.
Could it be the reason?
I still didn't found where is set or how I can overwrite it.

Hi mastopeople,

I need help to have working screen sharing on my #debian laptop inside a #videoconference tab in #firefox or #chrome.
I'm sure it broke since I switched to #Sway on #Wayland.
I'm not sure if the browsers run natively or with Xwayland (they are not listed in `xlsclients`)

Any help appreciated, the simpler and more standard the better, I don't want to start downloading untrusted tools or compile things…

Please RT

Why does niri stop network connections on idle?


I really want to love niri window manager, but I just can’t.

I could deal with niri and swayidle not working at all with seemingly randomly locking me when I am in the middle of typing something or on a video conference call if niri would NOT kill my network connection when it’s idle.

I don’t understand why this is even a feature? It does not happen with sway. In sway, when swayidle kicks in, I still have a network connection. But not in niri. Why? Is there a way to get it to not do that? Who knows? The documentation is terrible.

If it did not do that, then I could live with having idle kick in...
