It's funny because Netflix's Gibbon and YouTube's Cobalt already use some of those ideas. At least the latter is open source. Flutter is built with the same thinking. There will be some kind of convergence in the coming years.

    I find it funny that youtube made a cool new tech specifically to render UI on tv's and yet it works like shit on any tv I encountered.

      Most probably you're not using a cobalt-based YouTube app yet.

        Is there a list of platforms that use it?

        Not AFAIK, but maybe someone more knowledgeable can chime-in.
