I just want the Manjaro Arm to not fizzle the gui’s and run Firefox at speeds faster than 1980s era internet…

Or any desktop distro, even gnome or ubuntu

    Also if you use Firefox make sure to use h264ify for hardware acceleration on YouTube

      That I noticed that Raspberry Pi OS had as well built in.

      Does Falkon need it since it’s Chromium based? How well will Falkon fare against ads with Manifest V3?

        Falkon just uses Chromiums web engine and strips everything else, they don’t use Manifest V3 as they have their own extension system (although that isn’t really mature). It comes with a built in adblocker that works fine for browsing, but youtube ads can’t be blocked. I recommend Falkon for web browsing, but I wouldn’t use it if all you want to do is watch youtube I would use a browser that supports h264ify. For browsers that do use chromiums web extension api there is a version of h264ify, which you will need for hardware acceleration.
