TikTok is fumbling critical business partnerships and cluttering its app with unpopular features. It could be the beginning of the end.

    Some irony there. Tik Tok wants to be more like Youtube with its long form content. Youtube wants to be more like Tik Tok with its shorts content.

    Neither seems to be winning the opposing battle.

      Fucking YouTube shorts.

      Every content creator has to partake in the stupidity because it’s that or becoming an algorithm outcast, so they awkwardly cut bits of their videos just to post a couple of those.

      And then YouTube forces them in everyone’s throat, with absolutely no regard for the medium and no option to filter them out.

      No, YouTube, I won’t watch your stupidly formatted 10-second bits of nothing on my TV.

          If you need to you can always replace the shorts part in the url with watch to get the normal interface back.
