Stadia Completely Broken on Linux

So, I currently have *5* Chromium-based browsers installed on my Linux system. Chromium, Google Chrome, Brave, Vivaldi, and Edge. *ALL OF THEM* worked with Stadia in the past. I had been a pro subscriber for like almost a year. Well, I wasn't using it, so I canceled, and recently decided to go back and revisit. The free pro subscription offer from Lenovo would NOT work, for one thing, so I ended up getting charged the 9.99 for a pro subscription (which is bull**bleep**). So since I was charged, I figured I'd use it to get my money's worth. But every single time I try to launch Stadia, it freezes before even finishing the stupid splash screen.

It freezes there every time, to the point where I have to kill it. This is incredibly frustrating. I've tried with h264ify both enabled and force-disabled. I'm on Arch Linux, so everything is the most up-to-date it can be. I've tried in EVERY chromium-based browser (and FYI they all do work, usually), and so far the only one that's worked at all is Vivaldi, of all things. Google Chrome itself is the worst of all.
