Streaming on Linux: Beginner
I'd recommend you to look for obs-vaapi and obs-gstreamer as plugins to utilize GPU encoding on OBS. On Flatpak they're available as OBS plugins you can install alongside the Flatpak version of OBS.

Radeon hardware encoder for OBS
The other option is to install a gstreamer plugin for OBS which will open up more options. Not quite as good as AMF, but much better than stock VAAPI. Here's what I use: https://github.com/fzwoch/obs-vaapi

GStreamer VAAPI Ubuntu Issues
I wanted to start experimenting with GPU recording on my Ubuntu machine and saw this video from GloriousEggroll demonstrating VAAPI working better than ever using the obs-gstreamer plugin, which would now be the standalone obs-vaapi plugin. I'm running Ubuntu 22.10 and the latest stable version of OBS from the ppa. As instructed, I checked the VAAPI version on my system with vainfo, got this.

I find it hard to justify going for an AMD GPU again
I just found this which is basically just the VA-API part of the GStreamer plugin and has these options in a GUI menu, so my encoding problems seem to have been resolved. This is even getting AV1 support in the next GStreamer cycle, which makes an RDNA3 AMD GPU very viable for recording and streaming.

GStreamer Encoders missing
Assuming you're using https://github.com/fzwoch/obs-vaapi , it appears to also support the older vaapi elements as 'legacy' encoders.

From endeavour to nobara.
That's odd. Does it break OBS entirely from loading or is hardware video acceleration disabled? If the latter, they should check if the mesa-va (libva) package is also installed. I'm running on 22.3.0-devel and OBS is working fine with obs-vaapi.
