Hello, I`m kinda new to Linux in general and recently switched to it because my recordings were very laggy on Windows. The first thing I saw when configuring OBS after installation is that It doesn`t have Window capture (nor game capture but i know why.) Is there a way to use Window Capture on Linux or a similar thing to capture only my game and not the desktop when I tab out?

Yes, use obs-vkcapture which probably comes closest to game capture for video. Use obs-pipewire-audio-capture to capture audio from specific applications only. In combination, this should get you a game capture. I usually put both sources into a scene, then include that scene as a sub-scene to get game capture.
