Because shorts are fucking garbage - they're objectively inferior in every single way.

They're made for devices with less detail control, so no video seeking, no audio control, limited video real estate.

They're made for the sake of the "try to make you swipe for hours and hours" algorithm.

And the single worst thing about them - They're forced on me, I can't avoid them - I try to hide them on youtube but that only "temporarily" hides them from the front page. The youtubers I generally follow now spam shitty shorts too and reddit doesn't let me filter out all youtube shorts.

Shorts, tiktok - all that shit can go burn,

but that's the point.

Lots of things are now being crudely edited and cut down for the sake of shorts, and then people go and post that crap on reddit.
