Seems they need some updates. OBS, Zoom and Xfce are all happy to work toward Wayland, and OBS/Zoom both work pretty well on it, so 🤷

And no telling what else has changed since; checks notes; 2016?

Obs works fine for me, what's the issue,?

There really isn’t one. Wayland is maturing and app support is following.

This is the way things always go in open source. I’m betting soon there will be a distro that will announce a never Wayland stance just like Devuan prior.

last i checked (a week ago) screen capture in OBS wasn't working on Wayland KDE

It works. You simply need the kde portal and pipewire installed

It's been working for a while unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean by screen capture. But I've been using OBS on KDE Wayland capturing via portals for months now with issues.

I just tried it. Create a "Screen capture (PipeWire)" source, there's a popup asking you to pick a display or "Full Workspace" which shares everything.
