Some progress in 21.04. Screen sharing in Chrome now sort of works, but

I tried your mentioned workaround and rebooted but Chrome still crashes.
ctrl+shift+alt+r work now tough.
When Chrome crashes I get this in the terminal:

Screensharing with Firefox and Chrome unstable works now in 21.04 but
Chrome stable crashes. While chrome stable will probably start working
before 21.04 is released (both 89 and 90 coming up), electron apps like
Slack and Teams are usually not as fast to update and libpipewire0.2
would be great
Firefox might not but lots of other things do.
It is allegedly possible to install the libpipewire0.2 binaries from an
earlier Ubuntu on 20.10 but I've had no success doing so; no
applications are able to share my screen (firefox, chrome, slack,
teams...)

Latest firefox doesn't seem to need this, they have 0.3 patches upstream
now.
