If the RNG is the same in all poker rooms, why does this happen?

I'm just losing at 888poker every day, in every tournament, and in the other rooms I'm winning, WPT, Replay, and I play exactly the same way, all the highest equity hands I have are broken, it doesn't matter AK, KK, AA , AQ is how the 888's RNG is for me, I know that for many it is a profitable platform, but for my account it is this way, an RNG that makes me lose + 80% on the best hands, so for now this is the situation with 888 every day, and in every tournament, whether pre flop or post flop, the example of this last image occurs, or there is a sequence, if it is with AA the villain hits trips with 88, flush etc. ... AK against a villain with AJ the villain will hit the J, if I have KK and two opponents are ALL IN with AJ and A8 as happened recently, on the flop the A falls and the two share the prize, in short, it's the same every day story if repeating with hands with greater equity, in all tournaments, it is simply impossible to profit anything with an RNG acting only on your hands, if this is just variance as they say, I am waiting for this variance to end, but it simply repeats itself day after day with me.
sadly, since the software update few days ago - I had to uninstall 888 because of those "bad beats".

Looking for another poker platform.

OMG, I thought we put this to rest 20 years ago. These few examples of bad beats mean and prove nothing. An RNG is such a simple thing for a poker site to institute and such an easy thing to expose if it were somehow not producing virtually random results, therefore any significant variations would have to be intentional which would be both idiotic and suicidal. Do you use tracking software? PT4? You could run some simple canary in a coal mine tests to see if you're getting dealt the mathematically calculated number of hand combinations but it is unlikely you have anywhere close to the number of hands to get an accurate result. I actually ran an experiment years ago to prove that the RNG's from all the main sights were within reasonable ranges of accuracy by polling dozens of Cardschat members and combining their results and found that there was ZERO obvious monkey business going with the RNG's on any of sites we tested. That said, there WAS a fair amount of other monkey business going on.

I think all poker RNGs are different cause they have a hidden formula that generate that 'random '
