Anyone else hate Youtube "shorts?"

Half the entertainment for a Youtube video is the comments and it's also nice to see the number of views and description

Youtube really pushes the Shorts, which a lot of them hide the comments, description and views. I have to do some work in order to view them. It's a pain in the ass and I don't know why they're doing this as they're not TikTok.

I guess theyre trying to get the TikTok brained people.

AI and shorts are ruining youtube tho. 98% of AI documentaries are completely false info and shorts contribute literally nothing other than some small dopamine in your brain or something.

They're really addictive.

They'll probably further reduce people's short term memory.

Yep for sure, YouTube is an amazing source for finding new music or rather new old music, but every time I search for something I get two hits and then a bunch of unrelated shorts. It fucks me off that I have to go into the settings and filter that shit out now

I feel like these apps and providers should not bother with a gay option. You've got a great product, don't worry about content for narrow minded ADHD gay people that cannot watch entire videos and only have a 15 second attention span

As a millennial pushing 40s, I refuse to use the Chinese spyware called Tik Tok, so YouTube Shorts is where I get the Tik Toks passdowns, kinda like contact high

I don't mind them. A little dose of short videos doesn't hurt once and awhile.

There's this program I have called UNHOOK. It allows you to customize YouTube in various ways, such as hiding shorts.

I don't mind the shorts, but I just want to be able to read the comments

YT shorts are for people with the attention span of a gnat.
