Before that everything worked fine. Now watching videos sucks, because of the 
tearing. Simply put: the browser is unusable for me.

Like comment #12 said: It seems the gpu flag was deliberately disabled by the 
ubuntu maintainer, a step that renders the browser unusable for me.
Everything worked fine without crashes before for me.
