1 year ago One of possible cases:
-
There's no GPU acceleration. There's a little you can do about it, you might mess with Chromium flags, try optimize setting that sets some of the flags automatically or use another Electron build with WebCord (it should be fine using versions as old as 23, maybe even 22).
-
Differences in Discord WebRTC design described briefly in this comment and on Discord blog.
-
A bug with Wayland, Chromium has these a lot.
There's very little I can do on my end for all of these cases:
- As discussed several times, there's no magical button nor switch that I could use to make GPU acceleration guaranteed on specific hardware; it all depends on Chromium, OS and driver support to happen. Currently WebCord has an option that triggers a bunch of flags that might help, but it can also make things worse or don't make any difference.

| Handling GPU acceleration in Chromium be like: |
-
WebCord won't integrate with any of Discord's native modules for a lot of reasons (e.g. ARM support, legal use), but once I'll be done with making another Discord client / rewritting WebCord it might be possible for the community to do it for me without trashing or modifying the current implementation instead thanks to modular design.
-
I do not work on Chromium engine, so don't expect me to fix this.
Also, due you did not provided the information if this issue was tested on X for WebCord as well, I'll add a Wayland label to indicate this might be a Wayland-specific issue. Feel free to comment on that to make this change, optionally also providing the information if XWayland or native Wayland was used.

Bug description
Whenever I screenshare to a Direct Message channel, my friend says that it lags a lot. But when I use the official Discord on Xorg, he says it's a lot smoother.
Additional context
Wayland, Intel Iris Xe GPU
My friend is using the official Discord desktop client.
