Have you tried installing zoom as a flatpak from flathub?

Using it at Fedora Silverblue 34 (Gnome 40 on Wayland) and screen sharing works (using it often at work).

Zoom screen sharing on wayland has been hacked around Gnome's private d-bus screenshot api. It doesn't work in any other environment.

That's not really a big deal, you could just develop a small shim for that d-bus API if you really needed to. But I agree, it would be better for them to switch to Pipewire.
