How's that 'interestingly'? Apple surely does try to worsen the experience, no reason not to support media source extensions.

How does Apple "try to worsen the experience"? The obvious guesses are that Apple hadn't gotten to implementing it in a way they want to be performative.

Or maybe Apple intentionally won't enable it because making Safari work smoothly means deciding not to support certain popular technologies, and forcing everyone else to adapt—perfect example of that is Apple's refusal to support Adobe Flash. Was Apple's motivation to not support Flash "trying to worsen the experience"?

> Stop D riding Apple

My original comment is explaining how the max 720p is literally Apple's fault, and not YouTube's fault. I'm the only one in the entire thread correctly blaming Apple for this. And I'm D riding Apple?

You should try reading the comments before you say stupid shit.

> literally just a codec.

I explained in my comment that it isn't a codec, but a web specification. It's not "Safari doesn't support the V9 codec" like a lot of people mistakenly think—apparently you're misinformed about that too.

> Bruh, this is a fanboy excuse,

Educated guess, not an excuse.

Still waiting on you to explain how "Apple does try to worsen the experience"
