Wish you better luck than me.
Comment by Christopher Snowhill (kode54) - Thursday, 14 February 2019, 01:36 GMT This is because Chromium's VAAPI patch, much like Totem when using VAAPI, is not aware of what to do when the driver presents 10 bit per channel color surfaces. Radeon has been doing this for maybe a year or two now.
You can look into setting allow_rgb10_configs to false either for Chromium, or globally, in either your personal .drirc, or the system drirc.

So far so good. Any examples of problematic sites with videos that I can test?

Meanwhile most people's laptop battery life under Linux is pathetic since neither Chrome, nor Firefox support HW accelerated video decoding and general 2D performance is often lacking. Yeah, please quote imaginary Windows "privacy" issues (not proven by anyone yet) while basic desktop features in Linux are just not yet there, 30 freaking years after its inception. I mean Windows, as we know it, was first released in 1995 and by Windows XP (2001) it was near perfect (supported everything under the Sun, had all the features for all walks of life). That's less than 10 years. I do understand that Microsoft had its monopoly and tons of resources but VDPAU was released around 2008, VA-API was released shortly after, i.e. 12 freaking years ago. Yeah, let's talk about Windows issues.
Concerning Windows - well, there were plenty of things why people even back than preferred the Linux desktop. Probably not on the media / consumer site, but saying that Windows XP was nearly perfect - well, I disagree
Sure, graphics was and is a area where Windows has an edge. But it's getting smaller, no?

What graphics card are you using? I'm using the NVIDIA proprietary drivers.
I also have these chromium-vaapi v80 options enabled:
--ignore-gpu-blacklist
--enable-gpu-rasterization
--enable-native-gpu-memory-buffers
--enable-zero-copy
