Nope! I used it for a while and had issues with screen sharing/capture in Firefox and OBS (it did work in Chrome but then my webcam didn't work there - classic Linux).

I never thought it would take 3 decades for Wayland to be mature.

How long ago was this? Screen sharing[0] and capture[1] works fine in wlroots.

  [0]: Supported with workarounds circa 2020, most were merged by 2022 - https://github.com/emersion/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr/wiki/Screencast-Compatibility
  [1]: I've had success using `wf-recorder` https://github.com/ammen99/wf-recorder

Right now. On RHEL 8 admittedly, and it Firefox screen sharing did work at first, but it randomly broke at some point. OBS capture never worked in Wayland for me.
