Doesn't work for sharing full screen or some apps on Linux when using wayland.

Screen sharing on Linux works for X Server display managers (This is still the "default" in many distros and setups), but others just see a black screen and mouse when I try screen sharing in a Wayland context (via Sway).

Screen share crashes chrome for the last month. Nothing i tried fixed it. Besides that it is good.
