From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Finally, the end of "it doesn't work on Wayland" is in sight. Just in time for Windows 10 EoL too
It's not the end of "it doesn't work on Wayland", just the end of an alternative that does work in such circumstances. That said, since explicit sync was merged into the Nvidia drivers, I've had no problems with Wayland / Plasma.
Getting ready for Zoom to have instructions to install i3 rather than fixing their Wayland support.
Is using the web version no longer possible? And: Will Xwayland not help you with that?
I don't use Zoom enough to know, but it probably still works.
My last experience with the Zoom app on Wayland (a few months ago?) required me to do a manual config file change to launch the app properly. And Zoom says they fixed the screen sharing options, not sure how true that is.
