Since Firefox 88+ (on a Linux distro) started to play Youtube videos with a lot of issues: choppy, bad audio, and so on.

That make it "less addictive" to me.

And I don't have plans to upgrade my laptop to hardware decoding vp9 streams

It might not be exclusive to Linux, I'm seeing the same choppy video playback on Windows 11, Firefox 90. Had to switch to Edge/Chrome to watch a YouTube video yesterday. And I've an Nvidia GTX 2060.
