    After YouTube started filling their search results with mostly shorts, I stopped using it for new stuff. It’s terrible now.

      Yeah youtubes attempt at being tiktok is just awful and they don’t even have options to not have shorts show up in the feed. On top of shorts just being inferior versions of regular videos without functional controls

        This is what gets me. Wanna show me shorts? Ok. But why the fuck am I not allowed to rewind a couple of seconds if I want to? It’s an artificial, completely useless limitation that had no place in 2023.

        So, no thanks.

          For what it’s worth you can replace the “short” in the url with “watch” to get the old interface back.
