The biggest offender is Youtube Shorts at the top. With TikTok at least you can restrict your daily watch time and it is pure entertainment anyway - I don't have to open it when I don't want entertainment. Youtube is different because it has lots of useful stuff too and this mixture of the helpful and the addictive is pure evil. It is almost as if every food item in your life is served with a beer, a cigarette, some coke and some crack for free.
A bit OT, but I watch a lot of tutorials with many parts. Is there a good way to track which part I already watched?
- soared 4y agoThere is a chrome extension to block shorts fyi
- kevincox 4y agoI hate shorts with a passion. It's like they just decided to remove half of the features and think it is better. Like you can't cast a short to your TV via the YouTube app. You can cast other portrait videos, but if they have #shorts in the title then it gets blocked. Luckily you can get the regular video UI if you go direct to the video link in your browser, but no casting and if you ever get to the video another way you need to edit the URL to do simple things like seek.
