I normally don’t see people disliking the fact that the videos are short, but the way that they are consumed, is more the fact that the players are horrible and the fact that you are always pushed to watch the next video, and also the screen orientation that only work on phones

It really feels like “old man yells at cloud” vibes. It’s a different medium that many people do genuinely like, and I find myself watching them as well when they pop up in my subscriptions. YouTube’s push for them and the horrible app experience are worthwhile things to criticize, but shorts can oftentimes be fun to watch
