You also get the “bonus” of full quality videos on mobile. The safari version of YouTube is limited to 720p and music videos 360p.

Well, the web version in Firefox on Android works with 2160p.

Apple is still not supporting any free codecs on the web. Apparently they actually do have a hardware VP9 decoder in the newest chips but it's only exposed to the YouTube app?? https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-m1-vp9-av1-decodi...
