You can get GPU accelerated YouTube videos in OpenBSD, provided you have a supported GPU in the first place. You have to use Firefox and enable gfx.webrender.all and layers.acceleration.force-enabled in about:config. I've been able to get up to 2Kp60 smooth as butter on Intel HD 530 graphics in OpenBSD 7.0. 4Kp60 plays and drops a few frames, but my monitor is 2K so I have no need for 4K playback anyway.
