Zoom and Jitsi-Meet screen share failing on KDE Wayland

General system Applications

I executed real-time monitoring in terminal to see why screen sharing in both zoom and jitsi-meet don’t work on Wayland, and unfortunately it said the following:

Jul 16 14:03:30 Arch-System kwin_wayland[2060]: kf.windowsystem: static bool KX11Extras::mapViewport() may only be used on X11

Are there any alternative solutions besides using X11?

I’d like to remain on Wayland and find a way around it if it’s possible.

Aren’t those both electron apps. Have you passed the command line arguments that make electron apps use wayland?

Yes they are electron and no I did not. How do I do that?

This section has the command line arguments you need.
