Something is going horribly wrong on this page.

Putting an svg filter over the video element is making the page render 1fps a second on Firefox MacOS.

I legitimately thought you uploaded a massive gif as your feature asset instead of a video.

If the effect is always on the video, you may want to just bake it into the video.

Otherwise, you might want to recreate the filter without using SVGs to do it.

Thanks for highlighting, we're investigating and should have a fix shortly.
Looks like you fixed it!
I have the same problem on Firefox on Linux. It is also extremely heavy on Firefox for iOS, causes the phone to heat up.
