com.obsproject.Studio VS goxlr-on-linux

The "see details" link takes you to: https://github.com/flathub/com.obsproject.Studio/graphs/contributors/

With official packages, I have even more questions. Example: OBS Studio. The publisher link points to this repo, which is currently archived, with the message "This repository is no longer used to build OBS. Issues should be reported at https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio". After some digging, I found they're using Github Actions to automatically publish to Flathub on release, which is fine (and pretty cool), but I would still prefer that Flathub provide some kind of records on their end. What assurances do I have that the package installed on my machine from Flathub is the one that was built by upstream? Maybe they have something and I'm not looking in the right place.

Big news for Linux users: We now officially ship OBS Studio via Flatpak (in addition to the PPA), greatly expanding support for more distros and providing a much more consistent experience, no matter your environment. Download it from Flathub here - https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.obsproject.Studio

OBS (stream/rec): Flatpak, Steam(?)

There is obs-studio package in Debian, try using that. Alternatively, you could install it as a Flatpak via Flathub (there were also recent news of OBS Project is making it their official Linux package instead of Ubuntu PPA).

I'm not the only one. The issue tracker is full of people having serious issues like, y'know "Doesn't work at all" and "No fonts," and "Crashes on Alt-Tab," etc.

The install script that alleges support of goxlr is not officially supported in Manjaro and not available from AUR and does not appear to be working too well https://github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxlr-on-linux/issues

He was trying to install goxlr on linux. It's nothing official, just a hack written by two people to make some unsupported hardware device work on linux.

These commands must be executed in the console. To do this, open the terminal, paste the following lines and press enter: wget https://github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxlr-on-linux/raw/main/install.sh sudo chmod +x ./install.sh sudo ./install.sh

curl https://github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxlr-on-linux/raw/main/install.sh | sh

The goXLR script/Github repo that was featured? They added clearer noob-resistant instructions for how to download an execute the script. https://github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxlr-on-linux/commit/45fbb38c2b18e2c0f9f99ce4d47ecfebcb7d562a

Yes: https://github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxlr-on-linux/commit/45fbb38c2b18e2c0f9f99ce4d47ecfebcb7d562a

On a positive note https://github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxlr-on-linux updated their README.md

To be fair, if you go to the github page of that goxlr-on-linux repo and look at the hyperlink to the "install.sh" in the file listing, it does look like a url to download the actual script:
