No matter what app I use now for YouTube, I’m having issues with buffering. Is anyone else experiencing the same thing? Has Google finally found a way to hamper non-Premium users?

    I currently only get 360p in NewPipe&Tubular, with increasing throttling after about 1h hour watchtime per day. Using yt-dlp (of GUIs/apps based on it) is my current workaround.

    also, IMO this isn’t piracy related.
