Wait, Chromium has disabled hardware acceleration on Linux?
@matrix I know you can build it with hardware acceleration
@sjw Yeah, but default it isn't and I don't get why
@matrix I think I remember seeing a bug report about how it could cause some issues with NVIDIA graphics in some situations so they just disabled it.
@matrix similar to why the browser was removed from OBS on Linux (not just a build flag but disabled in the code).
It'd apparently cause issues/conflicts with gnome3 so it was removed for everyone.
It's back now and is a regular build flag but still...

@sjw I think it's been like that for at least 4 years now
@matrix it's a build flag now but it's not enabled by default so you have to build it yourself.
No more patching the code yourself to enable the build flag on Linux tho.

Brave might have it enabled I think
