    Ok so I have been using Waterfox and Brave for some time, switching between them to decide which I like more.

    On one hand, I am a little worried about all the stuff people bring out about Brave and really want to switch to WF. But on the other hand, WF seems really slow compared to brave and PiP just lags my whole system sometimes, even if I turn HW acceleration for video rendering, somehow WF (and all FF forks I have tried) hogs my GPU and my whole OS stutters here nad there when playing PiP videos.

    I am on linux, have relatively beefy PC with 64gb ram, RTX 3060 and few years old CPU. Has anyone faced this issue and fixed it somehow or is the video rendering in FF just that bad?
