Google might force users to pay for Premium to watch videos in 4K on YouTube

Some users have spotted a weird change in their YouTube apps: Google now allows high-res streaming only for those subscribed to YouTube Premium, leaving only 1440p and lower available for free.

Use Newpipe or LibreTube for an ad-free experience

I have never streamed a whole video in 4K and I am not about to.

720p? Good enough for me.
