It’s one of the single most used features there are outside of voip and text.
It’s Mandatory for a discord alterative.
This is a big reason why every alterative keeps failing. Linux and open source users are so fucking out of touch with normal users it’s absurd. They want and focus on all the wrong things and then complain when their apps don’t get popular.
Like federation is cool and all but literally fuck and all people give a single flying fuck about it outside of the nerdy in crowd.
Screen sharing on the other hand is a hard line the majority of normal users either refuse to live with out or have friends that do. Thus making it a make it or break it for most groups.
I’m honestly surprised it’s used that much. My guild (mostly working fathers) used to use TS3 and once discord appeared we switched there for the ease of it. Still used it mostly as voice chat with text channels being nice to have. But screen sharing? Pretty much non existent, quite a few people streamed on twitch, so we never really needed it.
Same with all the other groups I’m part of there. It’s always text + voice, also GIF and meme spam and stuff. But screen share? Virtually zero.

That’s why I’m so surprised.
