I guess I'll relegate this account into my solutions dump, like a scratch paper, so uhh starting now, I've found that sometimes the "portal" for selecting a window for screen sharing doesn't pop up on KDE sometimes when I'm using OBS
Running "systemctl --user restart pipewire.socket xdg-desktop-portal.service" fixes it. I use Arch, btw.
I might investigate this problem when it pops up again cos it happens randomly...

...either after a reboot or wake from sleep. It always says something about a cursor not being supported or something. I also have to investigate the trouble with Spectacle and firejail and try to recreate the problem in a virtual machine. Spectacle complains that KWin compositor isn't available even though I use KDE. Launching spectacle without firejail, spectacle complains "The process is not authorized to take a screenshot", like whut ?? idk #kde #firejail #linux #freesofware #opensource
