I wondered, Browsers work really well, are already there anyways, have all the GPU stuff etc already dealt with.

It could use the Browsers screencast ability on all platforms, and run with Javascript and WASM.

The stuff could be installed in a local Podman container and thus also work natively on Linux.

Do you know an app that does this, client-side?

          Highly disagree. Even though bloat may not matter much on your $10000 PC, it still gets worse over time and creates more and more ewaste for no reason.

            I’ve ran OBS on a 5 year old Chromebook with 32GB storage using Linux to stream to Twitch, I think most computers are capable of running OBS to record a video.

                    The idea that a web application for screen recording is less bloat than OBS is absurd. As this was the idea presented by OP, atzanteol reacted by figuratively saying that the word no longer had any meaning. Given the context, this was quite clearly not an attempt to downplay the effects or severity of software bloat, but simply a figurative use of the phrase meant to point out how badly the word bloat had been misused. You completely misinterpreted their comment. Then, when this was pointed out to you, you proceeded to do the Reddit thing of mockingly editing your original downvoted comment, successfully making an ass out of yourself.
