90% of Reddit videos are unwatchable for me : they start OK then the quality is downgraded to something unwatchable and there's nothing I can do about it.

I even tried to download them with youtube-dl but it doesn't work.

100% agreed. The initial buffering time on them is ridiculous. I've started uploading to streamable and just posting that link rather than upload video straight to reddit.

Makes me wonder in how many other [recursive] ways progress is held back by a lack of it.
