So, thanks to all the replies, I’ll be redoing a bunch of my work tomorrow using OBS.
So, in short: if you want to record screencasts and you care about the quality of your work: DO NOT USE THE BUILT-IN GNOME SCREEN RECORDER. It outputs low quality videos and you cannot change the qualiy.
Use OBS instead.
*le sigh*
G’night!

#Florida. Where we are so "free" that a middle school teacher needs to reach out to parents to offer an opt-out for watching the film adaptation of Anne Frank's Diary. I admit the subject material is serious and can cause emotions to well up. But do we really wait to be protecting our kids from #Nazi atrocities at this moment in history? Would parents in other parts of the world receive similar notification about this?
