Netflix 4K Documentaries (lemmy.world)

I currently pay for Netflix 4K. But I want to watch the content in 4K on my laptop and Netflix won't let me do that since I'm using Linux/Firefox.

I also have a Jellyfin server and rip my BluRays, so I'm used to ripping my own media to stream on my local network. I'd like to rip some of the newer "planet earth" style documentaries from Netflix which is presented in really beautiful 4k video. Is there a guide somewhere which will walk me though how to do this? I imagine I'll have to buy some additional gear to do this, but I'm not averse to that.

If anyone can point me the right direction, I'd be grateful.

Get a Shield or something of the sort and stream from that.

Or

Stop paying for 4k if you don't want to run Windows/OSX/use smart TV apps/get another device just for that, you're wasting your money.

Edit: Lol at the downvote, streaming services don't let you see 4k content from a browser, that's just a fact, so unless you are ready to use a platform that allows you to watch 4k content then you're wasting money by paying for it. None of them have a native Linux app either, so your choice is Windows, OSX, TV app or Android based device.
