Ubuntu – Youtube micro-stutter after 18.04

chromiumfirefoxgoogle-chromeyoutube

After I upgraded to 18.04 (clean install mind you) I gotten lots of micro-stutter for example by playing back videos on Youtube. It can't at all handle 1080p 60fps on a video without dropping lots of frames. It can hardly handle 1080p normal.

However, Firefox everything works fine. Butter smooth.

I tried the most common suggestion about turning of hardware acceleration, clearing data etc. But now I tried to different browsers both Google Chrome and Chromium so it seem to be linked to the Chromium package.

Anyone got any idea why it might happen? I got some plugins that works better during Chrome so it would be nice to have it working again.

Regards

I changed my monitor refresh rate(Hz) from 60Hz to 59.94Hz. Now it seems more fluid under Ubuntu 18.04 with Gnome3.
