Bazzite GNOME incompatibility with Discover Overlay

Hello, I'm getting conflicting results on whether bazzite-gnome supports Discover Overlay. I'm aware that GNOME Wayland doesn't support the overlay, but there was When I attempt to run it via command line I'm getting this message:

INFO - discover_overlay.discover_overlay - Starting Discover Overlay: 0.7.2

** (discover-overlay:308266): WARNING **: 14:34:32.736: It appears your Wayland compositor does not support the Layer Shell protocol
INFO - discover_overlay.overlay - GTK Layer Shell is not supported on this wayland compositor
INFO - discover_overlay.overlay - Currently not possible: Gnome, Weston


This is already with the following environment variables set on /etc/default/discover-overlay:
AUTO_LAUNCH_DISCOVER_OVERLAY=1
LAUNCH_DISCOVER_ON_GNOME_WAYLAND=0


Is there some other setting that I'm missing? Or is it just flat incompatible at the moment?
Solution
discover overlay is unsupported on GNOME wayland since it require gtk layer shell which doesn't work ironically on GNOME
