Wow! This is great! It was always such a struggle to get stuff like CEF (necessary to show rendered HTML/web pages and chat in a livestream) on Linux. I never even tried to tackle other plugins. I might start up my livecoding again based on this -- thank you

Is OBS packaged by your distro? On NixOS I just started up OBS and I could add the "Browser" input with no issues.

  This OBS Studio Portable container is built with Ubuntu, because Ubuntu is one of the supported Linux targets by upstream OBS. The OBS Studio Portable container is a ready-to-run, batteries included turn-key solution. I am a NixOS user and nixpkgs maintainer. I've been working on adding more OBS plugins to nixpkgs and fixing OBS Studio in nixpkgs, but it needs more work: - For me, it is missing some plugins I rely on and some of the OBS plugins in nixpkgs do not work. I am actively working on this. - FDK ACC doesn't work in OBS in nixpkgs and the ffmpeg version is not fully API compatible with OBS, meaning some presets do not work. On my list to fix. - CEF in nixpkgs is not ABI compatible with OBS and cause OBS to segfault when authenticating Twitch. Again, on my list of things to fix. I have a long history of building a custom OBS Studio on Ubuntu, so decided to make this OBS Studio container with my friends in the Universal Blue project, to get myself a complete OBS setup I can use on NixOS while I continue to work on OBS related fixes in nixpkgs :-)

Danny! God, I remember your TV show, 404 Not Found. You should restart that. Did you film it at Capital? I was doing Chips with Everything for .tv at the same time in that tiny, tiny studio. I was in court testifying about something technical recently and the prosecutor said "And where did you get that?" and I said "404 Not Found" and it was very confusing for them.
