You need to install a 3rd party software Blackhole to even get desktop audio for screen recording with QuickTime. After about an hour of troubleshooting settings I gave up and used OBS, esp since I was in a public space at the time and the Blackhole config disabled my headphones and for a moment you could hear a loud YouTube tutorial playing through my Mac speakers. Also the shortcut to stop screen recording on QuickTime sucks, it’s like CMD+CTRL+ESC and you need to have it memorized because there’s no “Stop Recording” button option
I bought it when he released it. It was good for him but arguably he lowered his worth and took a pay cut, and it also set a bit of a price ceiling base rate for comedy specials at 5$, which if you aren’t the #1 comedian at the time like Louis was you can’t bring in the same sales volume.
From my experience the terrible experience is pretty often because of bloated features (and the bad UI that comes with it) that are shipped quickly in order to be first to market and capitalize on the novelty of some new technology. Move fast and break things. Then hardware technology improved so bloated UI etc got a pass because no one needed to optimize anything unless you're developing for 3rd world with outdated hardware and poor internet speeds.
