This change will only affect AMD, as the intel non-free drivers do not

There is barely any hardware video acceleration support for nouveau
anyway, for which you would install the proprietary driver. Further, as
NVIDIA does not expose a vaapi interface, you need to install third
party packages to get it to work with Firefox. So AFAICT this will
primarily (if not only) affect AMD users.
So only everybody who specifically purchased a discrete GPU that works
"out of the box" with Fedora?
Well, we don't ship any userspace software that provides the necessary
support code to use those codecs anyway.
Wasn't this being used by firefox?
