    I’ve got 500Mb fiber internet and YouTube refuses to stream above 360p unless i manually change it. Which each update becomes harder and harder to do as they hide the video quality button somewhere else.

          If you’re on Android, get pipepipe from f-droid.

          Not only is it a way better and more functional YouTube app, it doesn’t do ads.

              Ya that works too. At the time I discovered it I was using piped for a long time already. Greyjay had some more bells and whistles and the UI is more overwhelming at first. It also had a big that was annoying and functioned fine in piped so I stuck with that in the end. Also greyjay is a massive app by comparison if you care about that.

          If your phone is Android, NewPipe is an open-source, third-party client that permits setting quality. It’s on F-Droid (the big open-source app repository) if you use that, and probably on Google Store as well.
