It’s not even really better on Windows. (Nearly) all streaming services restrict resolution to 720p if you watch on a PC, mobile phone or tablet. With the exception of Netflix if you watch with Microsoft Edge or Chrome, I believe.
yeah I don’t run into this issue on my mac at work or at home, but i do with every windows and linux machine i try them on. I can do whateevr the fuck i want on my plex server though…if i could only get my wife to adapt to the plex UI and the ombi requester…
You’re sure Netflix plays 4k on Android? I have Widevine L1 reported in my Android Netflix app (on my rooted Android phone thanks to Magisk and the various spoofing/root-hiding tools). But even at L1 the video is limited to 1080p. I think it may be an app platform limitation, but would love to be proven wrong.

Netflix plays 4k on my Mac, android and ipad. I don’t use prime enough but it does the same I believe.

Don‘t GPUs also include hardware for DRM stuff like that?
Yes, still then there are only very limited software configurations that are allowed.
