Stuttering in videos
Every time I try to watch a youtube video, there's constant stuttering. Please help.
Chosen solution
Install ffmpeg for your distro, eg Ubuntu:
sudo apt install ffmpeg
In the case of flatpak, install ffmpeg for the 23.08 runtime:
flatpak install org.freedesktop.Platform.ffmpeg-full//23.08
Enable accelerated decoding by changing media.ffmpeg.vaapi.enabled to true in about:config then restart the browser.

The flatpak solution solved this problem for me with Mint.
Going forward, if the stuttering starts happening again, how can I know which runtime version to install ffmpeg for? The 23.08.
