> Using this is KVM is technically possible but you'd lose a load of the benefits of running in a container

Not understanding why this would hold true, kvm and containers are both virtualization like tools, just at different levels. I think the main hold up would be the lack of many typical OS features. Like not sure how you'd go about setting up GStreamer for this OBS setup

Pretty much any container, and more than one at a time. Better than WSL imho

Passing through a GPU to a kernel in a VM requires fiddling with SR-IOV and IOMMU, which also requires your hardware is compatible. Often hardware is not compatible, either by design because these features are artificially reserved for "enterprise" models or due to accidental IOMMU group conflicts on lower priced motherboards.

As containers share the host kernel, these issues do not arise and hardware acceleration is trivial.
