Does anyone hate (Youtube SHORTS) as much as I do?
1. First of all, I enjoy watching regular (full screen view) Youtube videos.
2. When I say I enjoy watching (full screen view) Youtube videos, I am referring to the formatting.
3. I HATE watching VERTICAL formatted videos.
4. VERTICAL formatted videos cut off the left and right side of the video screen, leaving only the center vertically part to be seen.
5. That VERTICAL format SUCKS, because it doesn't show me the (full screen view) of the video.
6. I enjoy watching all sorts of youtube contents on (full screen view) on regular youtube.
7. I find watching regular (full screen view) youtube videos, often entertaining, often educational, and often informative.
8. I just want to be clear that I definitely enjoy watching regular (full screen view) youtube videos.
9. On the other hand, I genuinely HATE Youtube SHORTS.
10. What I hate most about Youtube SHORTS is the VERTICAL format of the videos.
11. That VERTICAL format SUCKS!!!
12. I also hate the fact that these Youtube SHORTS are only a few seconds long.
13. I also HATE the fact that those Youtube SHORTS clutter up my youtube searches, when I type something in the youtube search bar.
14. It's very ANNOYING scrolling through all that clutter of youtube SHORTS just to get to the actual regular Youtube videos in the search.
15. The actual format of Youtube SHORTS SUCKS.
16. Even if I wanted to post a Youtube SHORT, let's say on A2K, there is no way to have the video (box) displayed here on A2K.
17. All you can do is copy and paste the (link) to the youtube SHORT, but you can't post the Youtube SHORT directly onto A2K.
18. The [youtube] [/youtube] only works for regular youtube videos, NOT youtube SHORTS.
19. It makes no sense to me why Youtube SHORTS format was ever invented.
20. On a regular youtube format, you can make your regular youtube video as long or as short as you want it to be.
21. Being that you can make your regular (full screen view) youtube video as (short) as you want it to be, What would be the need or purpose of creating the youtube SHORT format?
22. And, you wouldn't ever have to use that VERTICAL formatting that SHORTS uses.
23. Maybe Youtube SHORTS (format) was created in response to the Tick Tock craze.
That's a real shame.
24. This thread is simply me (venting and ranting) my disdain and hatred of the (invention) of Youtube SHORTS.
I skip over the shorts, even the ones that might be interesting.
@edgarblythe,
1. I skip over all of the Shorts too.
2. But, if the CLUTTER of numerous Shorts shows up in your search, you still have to scroll down through all that SHORT Clutter
