While I am not the biggest fan of Wayland and understand the author, this link in the comments gives some reasonable responses/rebuttals: https://refi64.com/posts/dont-boycott-wayland.html They seem to point to https://pipewire.org/ for screen recording. I don't know how well that works out in practice and if there are other solutions for automation

Not sure about screen-recording, but for screen-sharing purposes, it breaks frequently (as in, every couple of months).

Which is not surprising, because pipewire, too, decided to start from from scratch instead of working inside gstreamer.
