From what I see, most Wayland aware applications have converged on using PipeWire (through XDG Portal) for screen sharing.

Personally I use PipeWire anyway but I'll admit telling people to replace more of their setup as a solution isn't very nice.

Also there might be oddballs like how Zoom used to use the GNOME screenshot API for a while.

Latest Zoom release supports Wayland screen sharing.

The only oddball these days is Discord, because they refuse to ship an updated version of Electron. Works fine in-browser.

You can absolutely run pipewire for screen sharing while running something else for an audio server. If your distribution doesn't provide this as a supported setup, I suggest you check with them.
