No one would watch videos in GARBAGEp resolution when 1080p is right behind a corner on YT

I deliberately lower streaming quality on everything I watch. If the thing is really worth it I might watch it in 720p. Everything else goes in 480p.

The push for 4k is a level of consumerism I’m not comfortable with, having the world going to shit as fast as it’s going.

I watch everything in 480p just because my internet is crap.

Great. Try 32mbps in 2023, with 3-5+ people streaming off it, and/or gaming on it, at once.

I used to get up in the morning at night at half-past-ten at night, half an hour before I went to bed, Eat a lump of freezing cold poison, work 28 hours a day at mill, and pay da mill owner to let us work there. And when I went home our dad used to murder us in cold blood, each night, and dance about on our graves, singing hallelujah.
