h264ify is a Chrome extension that improves video streaming on YouTube by making the platform stream H.264 videos instead of VP8/VP9 videos. This is particularly beneficial for users with less powerful machines, as H.264 is typically hardware accelerated, resulting in smoother video playback, reduced CPU usage, and improved battery life. By simply installing h264ify, users can experience a more optimized and efficient YouTube streaming experience. Check out the extension on GitHub at https://github.com/erkserkserks/h264ify.
