Is there any way to get HD content on streaming services?

Hi! So, I have like all the movie and series streaming services. Netflix, Prime Video, HBO Max, Disney+, Paramount, Crunchyroll, I got everything hahaha.

Three of them, Disney+, Prime Video and HBO Max, are sorta "vital". I'm really into Marvel and Prime Video has The Expanse, then HBO has Harry Potter movies and some other series that I like, so neither of them work like they should, all stream at 540p, not even 720p, where on Windows they go between 720p and 1080p.

Is there anything I can do? Even with Netflix I need an extension to force 1080p 'cause if not it'd stream at 720p. Tried Chrome, Chromium, Firefox, Microsoft Edge (flatpak), Vivaldi, Opera, none of them can get more than 540p.

I have primevideo and disney+ too, also discovery+, and yes, they don't work as expected on browsers even on windows side, It's DRM fault.
Using a native app should do it, since the native apps can get up to UHD without any problems, but they are only available for smartTV's and phones, some native apps are coming to windows 10 too, but they are not what we expect from them, the quality is up to 720p only...

It's so so frustrating. I wanna watch The Expanse on HD and can't, not even 720p. On Disney+ and Prime Video I get 1080p on Windows. I read that with Edge you can turn Disney+ as a PWA but Disney+ does not work at all on Edge Linux.
