I can confirm this issue on Ubuntu with Wayland. However, when I switched to Xorg, Peek was working normally. People who are on Ubuntu and are looking for a quick fix can choose Ubuntu on Xorg on login screen.

Confirm same issue - when I record on Wayland the gif just shows the cursor and black background, on X11 it records fine.

Please fix this. Not all of us use X11.

I'm trying to use the Peek for the first time on Linux (Debian), and trying to use it above the web browser (firefox) with (presumably) a white background. The result is in webp and gif is that the background (with the mouse being visible) is on top of a black background. Content is not visible. Peek 2022-11-13 20-27

Same issue here on Fedora 38 with Wayland and Podman Desktop app. Trying to produce gif. Edit: tried to record on X11 and it worked...
