Is the digital quality really that much better now?

10 years ago? I don’t think TV (at least big budget shows) has changed all that much. Like the first season of Game of Thrones was 11 years ago and the VFX all holds up.
What maybe is happening is a mix of the TV shows you are streaming or downloading today are at a higher bitrate (so look much better) than what you downloaded 10 years ago and rewatched recently, more shows being released at 4k now which gives them that extra sharpness, and extremely high quality digital video cameras being so widespread that low budget productive and even YouTube videos today look as good as high budget productions from 10 years ago.
