    I have Ubuntu 20.04 and I tried DWM window manager with the XDM display manager for a weekend but I didn't have the time to adapted to my style because I started classes at the university again. I changed the display manager back to gdm3 and got the usual gnome style for Ubuntu, but after that, I notice I can't share my entire screen when I'm in a video call, I have problems using Discord and Meet, I also notice that I can share only one screen at the time.

    I would like to know what to do to fix this problem, I think it has something to do with Xorg and Xserver but I'm not sure about it. Thank you in advance.

    This doesn't sounds correct. If you will manually disable WL, isn't better to simple login using Ubuntu Xorg? (you can select it before login)
