Description Jay Faulkner 2022-06-23 23:08:20 UTC
Slack supports Wayland screen sharing, but it's hidden behind a flag `--enable-features=WebRTCPipeWireCapturer` as indicated in the flatpak package bug here: https://github.com/flathub/com.slack.Slack/issues/101.

I've tested this on my gnome+wayland system, and it appears to work great.

Would it be possible to automatically add this flag to the launcher if USE=wayland or; if not; at least print a message like the one Zoom prints here https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/blob/master/net-im/zoom/zoom-5.11.0.3540.ebuild#L169 indicating it should change. 

Reproducible: Always
