I am encountering two persistent issues on Ubuntu 24.10:
- Screen sharing: I am unable to share a specific window or screen region, despite trying various solutions mentioned in forums (e.g., enabling PipeWire mode). This issue persists across version 6.3.1 and earlier versions.
- Calendar events: Since version 6.3, it has become impossible to save a calendar meeting or event.

As a workaround, you can use OBS studio virtual camera support. Install OBS, launch, "Start Virtual Camera" (bottom right), then in advanced sharing options, use said virtual camera.

Another note - using Zoom within Chrome results in no screen sharing issues.
