Yeh, do: 60fps, 30 bit color... and I guess HDR?
Do things that people can actually appreciate.
And do them in the way that utilises the new tech. 60fps looks completely different from 24fps... Work with that, it's a new media format. Express your talent

Even if it was, the streamings everyone's using crush down the bitrate so bad it'd barely look better than 4k anyway.

Meanwhile I'm still at 1080p and most content I watch not even that.

Getting rid of my tv was the best thing I did for myself. That’s the future. Removing and reducing all screen time.

For me, the opposite was true. Ever since I injured my knees last year, putting a 75 inch TV in my bedroom has improved my quality of life.

I know people will probably say "oh just fix your knees" and think that sentiment is helping, but I tend to not take my medical advice from technology communities and instead listen to doctors. It makes me sound rude, but it's true that medical advice should be given by medical professionals for the best outcome possible.

I really do love having a nice big TV in my bedroom.

Trust me this is not a technology community. If anything this is an anti-technology company more so than any other community that I've ever been a part of.

Working in entertainment and broadcasting, you learn barely half of Americans have a 4K tv and it’s under half worldwide. Marketing makes you think that “everyone is doing it”

The only real innovation after 1080p for TV was HDR, sound stuff, 60-120hz, and upscaling to 4k.
