except when watching YouTube for some reason.
fast af for all sources, but YouTube buffers every .5 seconds, even with all the bells and whistles and hardware acceleration
It buffers every .5 seconds because it only pulls in .5 seconds. It's fucking annoying as hell. Load the entire damn video so that if my internet connection falls away for 40 seconds in the elevator and parking garage that I'm not stuck with a stopped video
My internet drops consistently enough that if I want to watch a long video, I'll preemptively download it with yt-dlp. Maybe it's worth trying that.
