OBS keeps crashing

Hi, before I say anything else, I am completely new to both OBS and Bazzite as an OS. So assume I know nothing and please explain to me like I'm five (thank you and I'm sorry).

I've been trying to learn and set up OBS, but I've barely done anything before it started crashing, I tried to start in normal and safe mode, tried restarting the computer, and uninstalled and reinstalled OBS. That worked for like five minutes, but when I was trying to set up the audio, it started crashing again.
I am using the latest version of OBS, the first time I installed from the website, the second time from Bazaar.

I've managed to start it long enough to copy the log, and it gives me this URL: https://obsproject.com/logs/Gqt1EgfHG2F5nmlz
The log Analyzer has basically nothing to say from what I understand.

Please help? What do I do to troubleshoot? What information is needed to help me?

So, I remembered that I could ask the person who built my computer for help, and she guided me through stuff.

Basically, I ran OBS via Terminal, and got a message that said "GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye."

She then told me to go into Flatseal and enable everything for OBS studio, and that seems to have worked.

Only enabling the GPU acceleration did nothing, which is when she told me to enable everything. There is probably a way to figure out exactly which settings was causing the problem, but since she said that enabling everything shouldn't be a problem, and I don't know what anything does, I'm not going to do that.

Leaving this in case someone else is as confused as me and has the same problem.

Nevermind, this worked for a little while, and now I'm back to crashing as soon as I start OBS.
