Does anyone like youtube shorts?
I have a single friend who sends me those links. Everyone else sends tiktok generally.
I love all my friends but I’m not clicking on a shorts, TikTok, or reels link ever in my life
it fits a weird niche being on youtube instead of a more “direct” social media like instagram or facebook. I’ve seen kids who don’t have a smart phone, but they have a switch. Can’t run tik tok on the switch but you can run youtube. I’ve seen a handful of kids swiping their nintendos. Personally, it gets me because I basically just go here and youtube since I quit instagram.
Certainly a bad thing, but it gets use because it extends the swipe addiction outside of social media.
I thought YouTube was social media.
You can still use youtube as a mere filehost or as a non-algorithmic light-socialmedia where you just watch videos from your own curated list of subscriptions. Also the last major platform that still sorta works without logging in and semi-consistently via proxy front-ends.

The whole damn site is being flooded with AI slop. I’ve been doing some car repair deep-dives lately, and now my feed is periodically littered with shitty AI listicle clickbait videos about random gearhead topics, and a good chunk of the time the information is flat-out wrong (and serves as engagement bait to get boomers to show up in the comments). It sometimes takes me a minute to figure out if it’s an AI voice or just some novice with a shitty mic and not enough experience narrating because of weird delivery/emphasis, and once you are watching one of those fucking things, you don’t have a way to tell it not to recommend the channel to you anymore.
Fuckin’ YouTube.
were youtube shorts ever really alive? i mean this not as a tongue and cheek remark. youtube shorts has already been behind in so many ways compared to other platforms
The internet is basically dead tbh. This is genuinely the only site I use
Were YouTube shorts ever alive?
YouTube sucks
It’s literally spam and should be treated as such.
I found a YouTube link in your post. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
