Is enhanced-h264ify safe?

Clean risk

This extension controls which video codecs YouTube can use during playback.

It blocks selected YouTube video codecs, including VP8, VP9, AV1, and optionally H264, so playback can be limited to the formats you choose. By default, it blocks everything except H264 and 60fps video. It works on YouTube and stores its settings locally using browser storage.
