Loom alternatives / help? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Loom alternatives? Recording a demo here. Desktop app dies often, only a reinstall gets it going again briefly. (Win11, VPN or not, permissions all set, HDR unchecked.)

Web app won’t show my camera on VSCode or Git, only the Loom site. That part is vital 🤷‍♂️ so I’m stuck using the desktop app I think. (using FF mostly but tried Chromium (pls no Chrome))

Will just buying it magically fix all this? 🤷‍♂️ Thanks in advance for any ideas 👍✌️

Try The Secret of Money Island instead, it's much better than Loom. 😉

Geeze, what an obvious sales pitch.

If you have the option of hosting it somewhere else have a look into OBS.

It's open source desktop recording software.

A little more technical than Loom but if you get it going it will serve you well

Oh of course, yes! I’d forgotten you can record form that as well as streaming, thank you!
