    I like them. I watch a lot of long videos (30 - 90 minutes) so it’s nice to just watch really short stuff from time to time.

      I don’t mind videos that are exactly as long as they need to be, they can be 1 minute or 1 hour or whatever. But personally I don’t need skinny portrait mode and no seeking.

        Everyone’s different. I’ve watched videos on shorts that I would never click to watch and I really enjoyed them.
