Oh sweet, now I can look forward to "compiling shaders..." on every website I visit!

More seriously, I'm definitely curious to try this out on some of my weird computers. Sometimes vulkan support is noticeably more capable than other modes.
This is great news for nvidia users on Linux. It means that they don't need to install a VAAPI compatibility tool like nvidia-vaapi-driver. I also hope to see Vulkan Video supported in the open source userspace nvidia driver NVK soon too.
Lets see if this works better than VA-API, I could never manage to make it work with Chrome or Firefox, on my now dead netbook.
Since the Flash plugin was gone, watching YT on that device was always software rendering, regardless of the magic incantations between VA-API and browser configuration flags.
