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.
Thank you!
Videos, but vertical.
Didn’t realize that. Gross.
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.
Can’t wait for 10 hour long reviews of Elden Ring, BUT VERTICALE AND LOOPS NOW!?!
Vertical ;-;
Alright, I split the differance, I think that should make everyone happy.
I block shorts, so they don’t run anywhere 🤣
How do you do that?
I use GrayJay/Revanced on Android and Enhancer for YouTube on Firefox (or any browser)
I think that is a setting in freetube. Also some browser extensions can 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.
Good to know, I’ll search some out. Thanks!
Actually, does anyone with the knowhow know if the rules and filters made for uBlock work any differently in Chrome, Firefox or Safari? Arent they just html and javascript?
I’m a humanist, and the last time I played with html was in the 90’s, so fuck if I know about anything thats happening beyond the ui.
‘Tweaks for YouTube’ extension on desktop. Modified YouTube client on iPhone and/or Android. For iPhone you can also use Vinegar, Baking Soda, Shorts Blocker, and SponsorBlock extensions for Safari.
That’s not short.
Good news to those watching shorts (I guess) and completely irrelevant information to the rest of us.
So, they’re going to change the name to YouTube mediums?
They’re going full Australian coffee. YouTube medium shorts.
YouTube board shorts?
youtube bermudas.
If my shorts were 200% longer, they’d be pants.
Seems pointless. Just make a longer video.
Normal videos too
slowly youtube shorts get longer and longer, a disconcerning [sic] trend
