Deleted From past few days, Youtube is dropping a ton of frames for me. Chrome drops 50 out of 3000 frames and brave 20-30 out of 3000 for 4k 60fps videos. Meanwhile edge chromium is dropping 500 out of 700 frames for even 720p 60 video. Using edge chromium from a year or more and never faced such issues. It's totally unwatchable and unbearable Please fix it.
