YouTube always re-encodes the video

You are right. For example you can upload an avi to YouTube, but they will never host and stream an avi.

YouTube automatically generate videos in lower resolution of the one uploaded.
So when you watch a 4k video and switch to 1080, you are no longer watching the original video but a re-encoded one by YouTube itself which could have more artifacts since it’s resized and compressed.

I dunno the exact specs (like bit rate, etc.), someone will probably add them in another reply.

Ehm, it is already like that. Most of smart TVs use Android which is under Google control, a big (if not the biggest) ad company.

Why creating a new distro instead of using a big one and contribute to it?
