There haven't been many reported issues yet that weren't quick fixes, but one has stood out: many visitors have previously *disabled hardware acceleration* in their Chrome browsers, at the advice of well-meaning Internet websites.

Because of this, if you are seeing serious performance issues on Chrome, it's recommended that you ensure hardware acceleration is enabled in your browser settings.
## Future directions
This project is still in active development, but some upcoming features are worth mentioning.
