(performance of my device doesn't allow me to watch 720p50, but allows 720p)
youtube-dl says that Youtube has the video in 720p quality, but Youtube website doesn't allow me to pick it. How do I select the framerate on the Youtube website? And how do I set up Youtube to select it automatically for new videos?

but I prefer to watch in Youtube)

the answer I found is to install a tampermonkey userscript "Disable YouTube 60 FPS (Force 30 FPS)":
