I prefer “list” view over grid view. Switching to grid view shows six videos before the break, but significantly less information about the video.
I don’t get why everyone is so mad about this. When I saw it yesterday, I was glad they finally put them into a separate box I can just scroll past. Before, Shorts were just mixed in between the normal videos in the subscription feed and that was fucking awful.
And before that, they were in a separate section like they are now, but it had a thing you could click to hide that section entirely for 30 days.
Just because it’s less bad than the previous thing doesn’t mean it’s good.
I don’t remember them ever in a separate section on the subscription page. Maybe it was just one of google’s A/B testing for some people or I just hid them immediately and forgot. :-)
YouTube shorts are awful. Most of them are just incomplete YouTube videos.
oh they moved it finally? i couldnt stand a feed full of annoying shorts making it harder to find actual videos i wanted to watch. i been using an extension for a while and cant go back to what it was then. if at least they are confined to a seperate list its not so bad
I guess your screen isn’t 1366x768
Would be better if it was possible to hide it, like in home feed. I don’t want to see shorts in my subscription feed. It takes so much space.
I tested with ublock origin (firefox), removing the shorts section via adblock works.
This 100%
I actually liked when they were together in single box, everything was ordered from newest to oldest and I had extension that redirected shorts to normal player. With separated boxes I feel like there isn’t enough space and now the shorts don’t get the ‘watched red bar’ so I don’t know right away which shorts I’ve already seen, I’m forced to remember the thumbnails now which is annoying.
I do wish they give customization options, so users can decide how to actually use youtube.
