Does the same happen in Chromium?
It does not... Seems this is more of a firefox issue?
Highly likely. Firefox has hardware acceleration issues on Linux, sadly. Chrome often fares much better in the HW accel department.

):Issue/Bug Description: When I open a Youtube video on Firefox on fullscreen in its own workspace one of my CPU Cores will jump up to 100% utilization, causing the fans to ramp up, temperature to skyrocket, and whole DE to lag.
Steps to reproduce (if you know):
Expected behavior: To spread out core utilization without turning my laptop into a burning jet engine.
Other Notes:
htop shows the program that jumps up to 95% CPU Usage to be:
/usr/lib/xorg/Xorg vt2 -displayfd 3 -auth /run/user/1000/gdm/Xauthority -background none -noreset -keeptty -verbose 3
