    In my situation, I experienced a problem when I uncommented ***WaylandEnable=false***. This resulted in the malfunctioning of my input devices such as the keyboard and mouse. Hence, I would advise against implementing this solution. It's crucial to exercise caution when utilizing this command. – Martin May 30 '23 at 11:08

    This isn't a solution to screen sharing in Wayland. This simply disables Wayland, and that is going to be deprecated going forward. – siride Jun 14 '23 at 14:35
