I can't believe people still even use YouTube when shit like this is happening. Paywalling resolution? Get fukt.

Edit: To be clear, people who keep using services like this as they enshitify are literally the problem.

Resolution is the same it has always been, they are just offering a higher bitrate stream with premium (except I think they offer 8K streams on premium? But like come on... who the fuck needs that).

Doesnt matter if the video is uploaded in 4K, you can watch that stream at 1080p with the same/better effect.

YouTube compresses the shit out of anything uploaded to it. More so than other sites.

[-] warm@kbin.earth 3 points 1 day ago

Yes, which is why extra bitrate is valuable (depending on the video content) and the higher the resolution the video is, the higher the bitrate is. Which is why it is beneficial to watch a video at 4K even if you only have a 1080p screen.

I'm used to blu-ray and ultra hd blu-ray so now everything else looks like garbage to me. Google are cheap asses. Glad to know I'm not the only one who watches 4k videos on my 720p phone.

[-] warm@kbin.earth 1 points 1 day ago

Yeah, I get that. Personally, it looks good for most of the content I watch and it's free content, I really can't complain. The compression these days is really good.
