Oh dear god, not Shorts.. Everyone's trying to copy the TikTok model with Shorts..
I hate, hate HATE shorts, especially on YouTube.
For my work I sometimes produce 30-60 econd video clips and trying to show them to a client when YT insists on having them in the Shorts format is frustrating. I realise I can change the URL manually to override it, but it's just so stupid. And it also means I can set a custom thumbnail, as Shorts desnt allow that.
It all boils down to the way we consume media, but I feel that some platforms (like Reddit) isn't meant at all for this.
