I’m sorry guys, I actually watch the YouTube Shorts so Google pushing them into more people is my fault. I just don’t care to download Tik Tok and have yet another app. 😭
Oh yeah I was only posting dumb comments for content for lemmy. The issue is definitely because YouTube is pushing them front and center on the home screen of the app.
I’ve never actually searched for shorts either; I only ever watch my shorts via clicking on the “Shorts” link at the bottom of the app.
I just don’t get the point. Why not watch full length videos where you can have context and actually learn something? Shorts can’t really provide context so are just funny moments or something that aren’t really that interesting, just a waste of time.
A lot of “full length” videos are padded for monetisation purposes. I hate watching some tubers going on and on before actually getting into the main topic.
I honestly only watch them when I’m super bored or high in bed when I want quick laughs. But honestly, the same question can be asked of people who scroll on Facebook, lemmy, or Reddit hours on end
Listen, I’m a busy guy with a life. I don’t have 20 minutes to dedicate to a video. I’d rather watch a few shorts… a quick 51030 45 minute session is all I’m after…

I don’t think the shorts themselves are a problem, but I’ve never searched for a short
