I freaking hate Shorts, and the persistence with which YouTube attempts to shove that crap down your throat is absolutely infuriating.
YouTube also recently made the thumbnails larger, which is also really bad as it makes it more difficult to see what videos are in your subscription feed (even moreso with all the shorts clogging it up).
Apparently it's where the real money is. People doom-scrolling through an endless stream of crap.
I've been watching shorts lately and now EVERYTHING is about shorts. I don't ever get the little x anymore to remove the annoying fucking shelf anymore. Why does all this shit have to suck so much.
Same. I wish it wasn't there.
TikTok makes tons of dollaroos with shorts, now Google wants a slice of the pie. "Me too, me too". It would be funny if it wasn't so annoying.
