As a candidate, I personally liked the short (30 minute) online coding quizes.
First, they're an easy-for-me filter to pass. There are a lot of unqualified candidates just spamming their resumes, so I totally empathize with a company needing a low-effort filter on their side.
Second, if the company doesn't like my code, I don't want to waste any time. I've been in a few situations where an interviewer has a chip on their shoulder and rejected my perfectly fine solution that didn't have a microoptimization or other detail that I could only infer from mind reading.
