Hi, it's me again, the guy wanting to enable hardware acceleration for video playblack on web browsers. All of that led me to a deep rabbit hole about how Linux lacks support for GPU acceleration for things like YouTube.

i have tried to get help by posting at reddit and at github issues but no help till now.
