    Can you choose 4K from the little gear icon in the bottom right corner of the player?

    Not trying to defend YouTube, but I think they align video quality to network speed so you can watch without buffering.

        the big content providers and studios often don’t allow a higher bitrate or resolution in a third-party (to the os its on) browser… i hardly ever see 1080p available on that free stuff on yt.

          I don’t think that applies to content that doesn’t have DRM, and except music videos generally none has.

          I don’t know about the youtube interface because I haven’t used in it a long time, but there’s no problem with it through piped and invidious.
