Upgraded to a 1440p monitor recently and noticed netflix was at a constant 720p. Thought it was my internet connection but I did a little sleuthing and found something some of you are probably already aware of. From their HTML5 help page:

Google Chrome
  • Up to 720p on Windows and Linux
  • Up to 1080p on Mac and Chrome OS
Microsoft Edge up to 4K (on computers that meet Ultra HD requirements)
Mozilla Firefox up to 720p
Opera up to 720p
Safari
  • Up to 4K on macOS 11 or later
  • Up to 1080p on macOS 10.11 through 10.15
