I'm not a dev. For me, OBS has generally been a confusing hassle to deal with because of its laughably bad UI/UX.

The UI/UX needs simple English with pull downs so that users can form, gasp, simple English sentences which, of course, OBS would interpret as commands. The user would pull down stuff like, "I want to record 10 minutes of low quality video with high quality audio that is not larger than 50 megabytes in size which I will upload to YouTube."

Then OBS would translate that English into "coding magic." This sort of UI/UX is obviously worthwhile, and would be easy to implement.

In the past I have employed some kludgy workarounds which kind of, sort of worked. But I don't really need OBS for much. Therefore, to me, OBS is a typical FOSS "problem child" which I use despite disliking.
