From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What do you mean by bloated? Isn't it 2 clicks at most after the one time next-next-finish setup?
Too many features, too cluttery UI, made for a complete task I may not use.
I used OBS a lot but would like to find something slimmer
I think you can disable most of the toolbars in the main screen if it helps.
You can do that in the "Docks" menu in the topmost bar, unticking any you don't need.
I think you can freely hide these, maybe more: stats, audio mixer, scene transitions, sources (after you have set up your capture source), scenes.
Then if it's still a lot, you can untick these in the View menu besides Docks: scene/source list buttons, source toolbar, status bar.
At that point you only have the controls dock, the preview, and the thin top bar.
Don't forget to reenable the sources dock and the audio mixer if you want to change those settings, though.
I think I will switch back to OBS Studio or stay with GPU Screen recorder :D
But the idea is interesting anyways as a concept, as it works everywhere, on literally any Linux distro without any dependencies apart from "some" Javascript.
