When you’re sharing the screen of another Mac, you can set screen sharing settings to adjust the size and quality of the shared screen. If you choose Log In, you share the Mac with the other remote user, but you won’t share the same screen. If someone else is already connected to the Mac as a remote user, a dialog asks if you want to share the display with the other remote user (Share Display) or log in concurrently using a different user name and screen (Log In).

If they’re not, you’re prompted to enter the user name and password of a user who is allowed screen sharing access on that computer, or you can request permission to share the screen if the computer allows it. If both computers are logged in using the same Apple ID, the screen sharing session starts. If prompted, enter your user name and password, then click Sign In.
