Is there an available screen recorder for Linux that can continuously record everything, but only keep the last, for example, 10 minutes in a buffer, and anything older will be discarded?
Sometimes something interesting happens in whatever I’m doing, but replicating it after starting a recorder is hard. I also don’t want to deal with terabytes of video backlog.
Ideally, when something share-worthy has happened, I’d push a button or a magic key combo, and the buffer will be saved to a file.

OBS Studio should be able to to handle that. You can set up hot keys for saving the buffer too.

They call it the replay buffer, it works well. I use it sometimes when gaming so I can capture a cool clip to share with friends.
