So, they’re videos.
If only there was a way to watch those.
They’re videos but worse in every way
Is there a way to unsubscribe from shorts?
You can hide them with extensions, I’m pretty sure the one I use is called Unhooked, Revanced also works.
Videos, but vertical.
So they introduced shorts just to… lengthen them? The people behind Youtube are so incredibly lost it’s almost unbelievable.
They’ve begun to realize how they’re kinda impossible to really make a profit off of.
They introduced Shorts because TikTok threatens their monopoly. TikTok raised max length some time ago so they do it too. Now US is going to ban TT and they’re trying to clone some easy to implement stuff in hopes of getting users that won’t move to Instagram. Don’t see that happening because Google doesn’t understand what makes TT so popular. It’s kind of funny that TT recently implemented horizontal videos and it’s as half-assed as Google attempt at vertical ones.
I feel like we’ll be having the same conversation about YouTube Shorts in 10 years as we are having about YouTube Gaming today.
Which is to say none.
I block shorts, so they don’t run anywhere 🤣
How do you do that?
There are also uBlock Origin custom filters/rules that block all shorts, at least for Firefox/Firefox mobile and its forks AFAIK.
I need to find a way to block them on Invidious. Shorts just bloat up my Subscriptions page.
The very first video on YouTube was 19 seconds.
Then videos got so long they created shorts.
Now shorts are longer than the first YouTube video.
We’ve come full circle.
A three minute short is not a short, it is a video lol
Good news to those watching shorts (I guess) and completely irrelevant information to the rest of us.
Sorry I ran out of concentration halfway through your comment. Could you split it up into bite size chunks and spoon feed it to me?
That’s not short.
Top on my premium wish list is a way to disable them completely
Where do you find that menu? I can’t find it on my end
I have a couple browser plugins that make them vanish completely for me. Main one being “BlockTube”.
Only one being buggy is the plugin that should rewrite shart links to regular video links, so I can watch them if someone links them to me, but I can just interact with the video normally
Pretty soon they’ll be 10 minutes, and then longer, and eventually they’ll be just like any other YouTube video, except in vertical.
with no video controls so you just have to watch the whole thing.
oh you missed something, better watch the whole fucking thing again, with ads of course.
slowly youtube shorts get longer and longer, a disconcerning [sic] trend
Oh no, I don’t think my attention span can handle a full three minutes. That’s like, a whole movie.
Can’t wait for 10 hour long reviews of Elden Ring, BUT VERTICALE AND LOOPS NOW!?!
I swear some of those long-form video essays on games have longer runtimes than it would take to just play through the game from start to finish, but that’s okay, I’m still here for it. Love me some excruciatingly in-depth analysis of video game minutia.
You know, if I was going to ask for shorts to go in either direction, I would ask them to be shorter, because short shorts are better.
short shorts are better
Can confirm, am male and have eyes. 😆
Who wears short shorts? 🎶
