Same here! I run Brave 0.13.5 under Linux Manjaro.
It always occures about 5-10 seconds after I hit fullscreen on the youtube player. If I watch the video not int fullscreen, but in the default size, it runs without lag. When I try the same video in fullscreen with firefox, it works just fine...

An interesting observation:
When I first watch some time not in fullscreen, then switch to fullscreen for a while and then switch back and then scrub through the cached part of the timeline the following happens: watching in default size the section where I turned fullscreen on are also lagging (even in default size), while the other sections run smoothly. So even without changing the fullscreenmode again and running the video in default size, the problem is still there. Maybe the problem is related to the videocaching?!
