Al Sweigart on Nostr: I watch YouTube videos at the lower 360p resolution out of some weird environmental ...
I watch YouTube videos at the lower 360p resolution out of some weird environmental conservation sense. It uses (roughly) 10x less bandwidth and (I assume) 10x less computing power for the server. Most videos I'm just watching at 2x to get some general ideas or info out of, and I don't really need the extra resolution.
Anyone else?
