I’d never defend YouTube’s video quality, because it’s as we all know really bad, but I couldn’t replicate this problem. Here’s a screenshot watching it on my phone, in the browser, not the app.
Do you have youtube premium by any chance? There's an "enhanced bitrate" option that's only for premium users. On base 1080p, it still looks like that screenshot I posted.
No, I don’t, I’d never pay for YouTube 😄
