I suppose on a global scale, probably. I live in Sweden, so way up north, climate has been royally fucked here for a while, mostly in the sense that it’s just been wrong. Short cold winters. Spread out cold snaps. Weird heatwaves. Not 50C like some places, but back in 2018 I think we were pushing 40, which is just unheard of.
Thankfully we’ve not had something since but it’s just a matter of time.
If you want some of these features on mobile Android TV, you’ve still got options!
For Android TV, there’s SmartTubeNext: smarttubenext.comIt includes ad blocking and SponsorBlock. I also think the UX is a bit better than the official YouTube app.
For Android, there’s obviously ReVanced: revanced.app
You can also use AdGuard on iOS though safari and the SponsorBlock extension in the App Store too, but video quality isn’t great.
If you want to avoid resigning with AltStore or using Google services, there’s also Yattee for iOS: apps.apple.com/app/id1595136629 and Invidious and Piped client!
I don’t have an android device so if any of my info is wrong let me know!
Videos encoded with AV1 are smaller and look better on lower bitrates so you save some bandwidth. I noticed it’s also a bit less straining on the CPU which is nice if you wanna save some battery juice if you’re on a laptop without a dGPU.
