screen recorders
Why does it seem like screen recording software has remained just as slow as ever when recording despite improvements to hardware and codecs? My computer feels exactly as sluggish when recording the screen as it did 15 years ago.

?
nvenc can do 1080@120 at insane bitrates with imperceptible impact even on 20 series (I think) and 4k120 with slight tweaking on anything newer

It's not actually that slow when just using ffmpeg is it? I have an old thinkpad and I don't recall it being slow.

You have not had to suffer with fraps and all the other software encoded recorders 15 years ago if you think this

You probably haven't updated your hardware in eons or mutter "bloat" while unintalling your gpu drivers

OBS is very fast and the stupid XBox Game Bar/Shadowplay are practically free, you are merely a zoomer retard who doesnt remember the horrors of Unregistered HyperCam 2

check if your software is even capable of/configured for hardware encoding

sometimes I see one of this imagebaits to get me to read the post from the catalogue, and I actually start reading it because Ive looked at the image and mid-reading I realize that I don't actually have to read the post, I can just look at the image. I have no idea what youre talking about since Ive only read the first 8 words
What do you guys use to screen record?

Maybe the adware you're using is doing more than just recording your screen

I can tell you're a Linux pooser on a 15 year old stinkpad wondering why everything is slow.

Try gpu screen recorder if you use linux. It's specifically designed to be as performant as technically possible. I only lose around 1 fps when recording when playing a game at 120fps, recording at 4k 60fps with av1 on amd.

Depends on the program, a lot of the old ones have technical debt and are slow to adopt new mindsets so they stay slow.
