       You wonder why your ~10+ years old but still perfectly fine otherwise laptop is struggling as hell every time you open Twitch or Youtube?In Firefox-based browsers, go to your about:config, and search for those two settings:media.av1.enabledmedia.webm.enabledAnd set them to false.It'll prevent the various players to use anything but good old standard H264 codecs which most GPUs and iGPUs from the previous decade can hardware decode.I know you have some extension to do that, but I had quite a mixed experience with those, and they're often limited to specific websites, whereas disabling AV1 and WebM at the browser level ensures it'll apply to any web video player.#Firefox
