And they do it in the most abhorrent manner ever: No timeline, no way to rewind, and hold-to-pause. And people keep making minute long shorts.
I like YouTube shorts. I hate youtube short's format. For that reason, I removed the shorts and won't get them back until revanced adds the playback controls YouTube doesn't.
Reddit will be worse. Their engineers can't make a video player that doesn't download all video qualities at the same time, on a wasteful format. Their shorts feature will follow suit, it'll be uber garbage.
I wonder if we'll have the same discussion about Lemmy Shorts in ten years from now ;)
