    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.

        4K, 8K, 1,293K is overrated gimmicks to me. I want to see actual improvements, not just how big the resolution can get and how much detail. The last thing that wow’ed me like that were movie theater screens. I’m not really that impressed with it. Also 60FPS shows and things are so off-putting!
