Top alternatives to Screego
In its own words
The project's README opens: "In the past I've had some problems sharing my screen with coworkers using corporate chatting solutions like Microsoft Teams. I wanted to show them some of my code, but either the stream lagged several seconds behind or the quality was so poor that my colleagues couldn't read the code. Or both."
