    On an old nuc I’m using, Firefox with YouTube is a sluggish experience and hardware decide refuses to work. A lot of folks are finding the same, likely Google pushing us away from using Firefox.

      Any NUC has H264 decode on Linux, give Linux Mint a try?

      I think tho in about:config you need to set a vaapi flag to enabled.

        That’s really helpful, I’ll try that thank you. Yes the decode works fine in Chromium. It’s not that, it’s Google shenanigans.
