A frequent activity that my closest friend group likes to do is spectate on single-player games played by one person via screen-sharing (and we’re mostly introverted so no Twitch for us lol; plus, that’s Amazon’s playground anyway). This is where Discord unfortunately reigns supreme: its screen-sharing is somehow absolutely fantastic and near-flawless.

I recently learned that Matrix has screen-sharing through this Discord age-verification article, which may be enough to finally make the push for my friends to consider Matrix; how is it in comparison? Does anyone here very frequently use it?

    Old post, but in case you havent tried it yet this is a web test version of element-call. Its the same software stack that is now being used by element-desktop and element-x. Its quite new so most larger servers support it already but not all. Screen sharing works very well, but only one person at a time. Nvm you can have multiple screenshares active now and switch between them.
