I was really looking forward to Wayland, when I moved to Linux. It was then said to be right around the corner. That was six years ago. If the current state of Wayland is as bare-bones as depicted in the article, it's just sad. And as there is no support for OBS on the horizon, it's a non-topic for me. And I never liked X11 to begin with...

Yes, there is: Through Pipewire (xdg-desktop-portal), wlr-screencopy (wlrobs) or a virtual webcam (wf-recorder) :-)

Pipewire has the brightest future long term, but wlrobs seems to be the easiest to get started with if "Wayland" means wlroots based compositor (Sway, Wayfire, etc) in this instance.

OBS is working already with wlrobs.
