TF is AV2? We don't even have AV1 everywhere yet. I mean, there's youtube that does AV1, but not much else.

AV1 usage today: YouTube 75%, Facebook/Instagram 70%, Netflix 30% which covers 100% of their HDR catalog, TikTok. Vimeo, Amazon Prime also use it too. Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge all support AV1 decoding.

Lol, I forgot about social media. I know the browsers themselves support it, I was more talking about how AV1 isn't on Twitch, but yeah, you're right. :3
