I have updated my old guide about compiling Chromium. Now it only applies to compiling clear Chromium. A new one will be created for building with e3kskoy7wqk patches.

Stuttering and freezing on YouTube is not a "bug". It's expecting too much of an old processor, an old OS, and backported browsers to NOT stutter and freeze. There are userscripts that can force h.264 and to force less-resource-hungry resolutions. Again, expecting too much is not a "bug", it's a "reality check". Another thing that I find helpful is to *INTENTIONALLY* "throttle" my internet speed. It does not cause "lags", it forces the streaming service to NOT send me UN-NEEDED 4K.

@Slavich Shazam has already been fixed. Stuttering and freezing of sound and video on YouTube is usually associated with a weak processor that lacks the power to process 1080 video, especially if it is VP9 and even more so AV1.

No; newer OpenSSL branches introduce API incompatibilities with the older branches/versions; one would have to modify the source of a given application (relying on OpenSSL 1.0.2) to implement support there for a later OpenSSL branch and recompile the source anew... FTR, the 1.0.2 branch was publicly EoL'ed in the end of 2019, with OpenSSL-1.0.2u (1.0.2.21); this LTS branch is still under Premium Support for enterprises not able to update to later branches, however the needed fee for such support is beyond the reach of private individuals; if you scavenge Russian forums, you may stumble upon some compiled leaked sources, e.g. I did find myself OpenSSL-1.0.2.zi (1.0.2.34) binaries there, but, ofc, I'm not going to post links for them here ...
