Screen sharing does not work (since I use wayland). I couldn’t get it to work with the steps described in https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Firefox#Screen_Sharing

The xdg portals are too complex and don’t work reliably. As a workaround and much simpler solution to this problem, I will use

sudo modprobe v4l2loopback exclusive_caps=1
wf-recorder -x yuv420p -m v4l2 -c rawvideo --file=/dev/video2 # depends on what devices are already present
sudo modprobe -r v4l2loopback # to remove it again
