Like someone else has mentioned, I can imagine that this will spawn new trends in videos to get people to pause.
I dislike youtube shorts, and wish I could just not see them. I really hate that a lot of short creators have very packed shorts that then "seamlessly" join with the start of the video, so people watch multiple times.
I pay for premium, but I still feel like a cow being milked.
- chankstein38 2y agoAgreed, and the fact that, when I click the X on the shorts bar thing it says "The shorts will be removed for 30 days" like no you assholes, I want it GONE. I don't want to just have to do this again in a month.
- JR1427 2y agoThank you so much! I didn't know about the X, as I don't see it in the android app, which I use 99pct of the time. Just used desktop to hide those awful shorts for 30 blessed days!
- arrakeen 2y agoit's unbelievable how the X just isn't there on the android version, probably the most user hostile/disrespectful dark pattern i've ever personally encountered. that said, i'm surprised that it's available on the desktop version. i wonder if it's some sort of malicious compliance?
