I just use an HDMI cable from my laptop.

God I want to do that but for some reason Prime Video on my laptop is locked to like 480p on "highest quality" but when I cast to my TV on my phone it's full HD. Like what gives??

Do they hate that I'm on Linux using Firefox or something?? I tried Chrome and had the same issue.

Tried searching for the answer but all the Reddit posts say "it's just your slow ass Internet"!! Nah man I'm on fibre.

(Edit: though I do use my HDMI for videos I have on my hard drive ofc, but sometimes I don't want to bother looking for alternative sources....)

It's a Linux thing. I have the same problem and when I looked it up I believe I found Amazon just won't stream full quality on Linux browsers for some reason, I forget why exactly but it's very annoying.

Edit: Found this which says if not on Windows or Mac it restricts you to standard definition. Amazon.com

Tho yes, that does push me to do it more often.

Oh, yeah, I should have said that; these are for rips, not for streaming. I loathe streaming with a passion, hence I rip everything.
