That's a somewhat weird, to me, use case. Even in a business setting, we share our screens with colleagues via meet or slack only one or two at a time. How does this work on Discord and why would a party of people do it?

Its a very common use case on discord. As an example, a group of friends playing Jackbox Games, or watching YouTube videos together.

It is also common on art-focused servers for many people to be passively sharing what they are working on while they chat.

Friends and I will stream games in a channel, sometimes our perspective of the same game, sometimes different games we're playing on our own. Just four or five of us, not like fifty.

I spent so long making a reply to Dubyakay and you said just as much in a quarter of the words! Cheers!
