Today in "ffmpeg's AAC encoder is still a embarrassment and nobody should ever use it": OBS on Windows using it, at 320kbps, makes music sound like a low bitrate mp3 (metallic hi-hats, etc). No problem with a custom OBS build on Gentoo with libfdk_aac enabled, at *160* kbps.

If anyone cares about licensing what are they doing anywhere near h264 and aac at all? Apple related codecs are hives of scum and trollery.

Licensing is different from patent issues in this case. The problem with fdk is a "straightforward" copyright license. (And unfortunately, Apple devices aiui still can't do anything else. Sigh.)

How hard would it be for open source projects like this to “just” link to platform specific libraries? Surely macOS, Linux and Windows have decent AAC codecs built in? Honest question. Handbrake lets you chose CoreAudio AAC in macOS for example.
