And are you going to pay to host the petabytes of 4K content? Or are you going to expect other people to pay that when these creators jump ship?
What kind of moron is distributing 4k content when 1080p with high bitrate is already overkill?
What 💀 1080p looks like garbage on a 4K TV.
Get your eyes checked.
You may want to if you can't see a difference.
High bit rate 1080 is actually more data than most 4k streams. Besides, I can absolutely tell the difference on my computer monitor.
Yeah I’m not paying for that shit. I’ll let others pick up the cost not even gonna lie
Ok. Just sit on Lemmy and complain, then. Very helpful.
I’m not trying to help, and who the hell ordained you to be the champion of this noble cause of being a paypig?
It came to them in a form of a Raid Shadow Legends ad, on their knees they swore to pay YouTube, but they still watch ads each Sabbath to cleanse themselves.
In the name of Pewdiepie, Mr Beast, and SSSniperwolf, Amen
Maybe it's because I am blind and so my point is a little bit different. But personally, I have never understood having much video over about 1080p, especially on a phone and possibly even 720p. Peertube and 720p would work great. Each creator could set up their own instance or pay someone to set it up for them, and if they ever blew up and got seriously big, the amount of people watching their videos would send to their peers and load balance across them so the server wasn't totally overwhelmed.
