    That actually makes more sense to me compared to most premium features. Higher quality directly costs more money to stream.

      Even with premium they will send lower quality if they think they can get away with it, I have to change the quality on every video that plays on my tablet now: it completely ignores the preferred quality in the settings.

        I haven’t noticed any issues on Firefox, can also use an add-on to force specific quality.

          Just started getting this ad on the mobile site:

          The implementation seems to be too clever for ublock-origin to block it, as the ids seem to be dynamic.

          Desktop site doesn’t get it but it doesn’t have the double tap to fast forward feature 😔 Seems to happen specifically on this video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ANR_owxnll0

          Yeah I sometimes switch to Firefox instead of the youtube app, but its a little bit annoying switching in and out of fullscreen and I’ve found the tap to fast forward doesn’t work consistently. I wasn’t able to find an addon for Firefox Android to force the quality selection last time I looked but maybe I need to check again.
