Probably not, young people watch most of their content on phones/etc, not big TVs with motion interpolation.

This is absolutely the case with all of the nieces/nephews that I know. They prefer that they see the majority of, tablets, which 81% of kids have these days [1].

  That number is a pretty high--looking at your link, living in a house with a tablet isn't the same as having a tablet. I have tablet from work but my kids don't use it or any other. BTW that's really cool that you could direct the highlighting in the URL like that. If it's not specific to census.gov, what is that called? What level of the stack is interpreting it?

    Its at the JS layer from what I can see: #:~:text=In 2021%2C 81%25 of households,17 years old — owned tablets. That query fragment is what triggered it, which means theres some Javascript taking that in and highlighting whats on the page

Someone tell the film industry, so that they stop lighting and color-grading the movies and TV shows for ultrabright, turbo-HDR-enabled expensive TVs - almost no one has those, and even those who do mostly watch on their phones. Maybe if the industry gets that memo, we'll once again have films and shows in which one can actually see what's happening.

  I’d rather my films be graded for home theater use than phone use. HDR TVs these days are basically all TVs. Why should we all take a step back in quality when the hardware to view it decently is more affordable than it’s ever been? I don’t care how Oppenheimer looks on your phone I know Nolan would care even less.

    Because who has home theater? I'd think it was mostly killed by the Internet, streaming, and the overall trend of cable-cutting, ditching TVs, and switching to computer and laptop screens for one's entertainment. (I guess at some point this must have reversed everywhere except the bubble myself and my friends and acquaintances live in...)

      I have a home theater. I don't know how big the market is, but you can buy receivers from a half dozen manufacturers (Denon, Yamaha, Sony, Onkyo as well as a bunch of speciality brands), digital projectors (Epson, Sony, JVC, BenQ and also a bunch of speciality brands), and all manner of ancillary items (sound proofing, audio treatments, theater seating, etc). /r/hometheater/ has nearly a million members. https://www.avsforum.com/ https://www.avsforum.com/ is pretty active. TVs are still getting larger and they've recently crossed the 100" in size. So yeah, there's a least a few dozen of us!

      I personally, have a 100” dropdown screen, ust projector and a Sonos surround. This last month, I helped my work buddy shop some deals and got him a 75” Dolby Vision TV and surround sound system with sub for $1200. These are affordable things.
