It’s all vertical video as well. YouTube pushes Shorts fairly aggressively on the desktop website, and it’s a crappy experience.
Be glad Youtube still works on the desktop at all. A very large majority of users watch on their phones and YouTube only cares about profits.
I already knew this but still what a terrifying prospect, I love my phone but there are some things a desktop is just better for
Yeah I'm one of the ten people who can't stand watching videos on my phone. I draw the line at gifs.
I'll do football film on iPad or desktop. I'll very occasionally do a video class format on one of those. That's it. Anything else is going on a TV.
Games I love handheld, though, so IDK.
I tend to watch YouTube on my phone while traveling, waiting, relaxing and don’t feel like turning on the TV… but always in landscape orientation. I can’t stand vertical videos.
I use a firefox addon to hide shorts. works most of the time I guess.
No one uses desktop
I uninstalled the YT app on my phone and use the desktop site exclusively now. Can’t stand watching without ad block and sponsor block. I also blocked shorts.
