Microsoft Edge has had this for some time. I was surprised, but Edge is pretty modern.
Isn't higher frames per second good? You wouldn't want a video game to intentionally limit itself to 24 fps. Isn't motion smoothing more realistic?

If you did not make it past season one of Money Heist, then you missed out on:

This optimization option isn't on by default? That sounds like a lot of missed optimization. Most programs aren't going to be loading from shared libraries.
Maybe I can set this option at work. Though it's scary because I'd have to be certain.

I don't think this article is very well-written. It gets confused about whether QUIC has a handshake or not (it does). And it conflates zero round-trip time with combining the TCP/TLS handshakes together.
The video argues that this creates a monopoly.
