Except that search on YouTube is also a terrible experience. You get maybe 10 videos related to the query, then just a flood of completely unrelated stuff. You used to be able to scroll down far enough to get more results, but I'm not sure that even works anymore.
Just tried with "Keto garlic noodles recipe" (something I've been playing with recently). 1 result, then shorts, 2 more results, then MORE shorts, then more results that have mixed relevancy. Oh yup and a pro-sugar anti-keto propaganda video mixed in because, why not.
Scroll down a bit more and yup, more shorts section. Keep scrolling and now YouTube is just injecting short videos in the results feed like normal videos instead of the horizontal short sections like higher up.
YouTube search is f-ing broken. Sorry for the language.
