Firefox will have video acceleration in Wayland

[Portada HL]

While hardware video decoding is something that has been with us for a long time on Windows, in Firefox for Linux it has been something that has been begged for a few years, especially for Intel iGPUs. It seems that with Wayland the situation is going to change.

It was about time!. When we use a powerful computer it is not so noticeable, but with budget ranges this is going to give it a boost.

@Yorus Totally. The video acceleration in Firefox for Linux is insane. I've had a few computers, as you say, from budget ranges where the difference between Windows and Linux was significant for this detail. On laptops it will be beneficial in all ranges for battery reasons.
