Re:When Time Comes for GTK5, It Might Be Wayland-Only on Linux

Wayland doesn't specify the APIs required to support screen recording, so each Wayland server implementation has to decide if/how to offer its own such interfaces. This basically means it's up to each desktop environment, although there are now some shared implmentations of this and other features in wlroots.

Screen recording is out of scope for wayland. Each server doesn't have to decide anything, basically every desktop working on this has converged on using pipewire for screen recording.
