    At least they named themselves as a warning to the rest of us. Kind of them, frankly.

    damn you cant even hide them like you can on mobile that sucks.

    I do not see a way to hide them on mobile.

    There was one of the buttons up in the corner like there is for videos where you can tell it not interested. Like 3 days ago I was very annoyed because they threw them up at the very top of my YouTube apps home page and idk how it is on a regular phone, but on the fold 3 the shorts section takes up like 3/4 of the screen. If you’re looking for one in the subscription page, I don’t actually use that page tbh but I just checked and yeah there’s not one there.

    Just add this line to the “My Filters” section for the uBlock Origin extension.

    1. click the extension in your top bar
    2. click the “gears” icon/button
    3. click the “My Filters” tab and add this line :

    www.youtube.com## > .ytd-rich-section-renderer.style-scope

    YouTube shorts feel like a weird attempt to enter a market that YouTube doesn’t really fit. I understand the business philosophy behind it, but I wish they would prioritize improvements to their main services over their side projects.

    The original idea for Youtube was "make your own tv shows" so it wasn't really intended for highbrow entertainment, infotainment, etc. Then they started promoting videos that were longer format, so the "watch my sister go splat trying to jump in the pool" videos got replaced by how-tos, unboxing, and explainers. Then tiktok came along and Youtube is trying to turn itself into "watch my sister go splat in 60 seconds or less."

    It's sad that with the concentration of developers and creatives at their disposal -- not to mention the financial resources -- they can't innovate something beyond tiktok. Instead of tagging along after a trend and wind up looking like an old geezer dressing up like a 16 year old.

    Source on the image? Seems to be a snippet of a longer article.

    EDIT: looking up the text of the image gives me inshorts.com/…/kerala-man-loses-₹40000-as-video-c…, which is just the snipped text, but points at

    hindustantimes.com/…/deepfake-scammers-trick-indi…

    as the source. I get images get more engagement than links, but it’s important to have the source handy.

    rob_t_firefly ,
    @rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world avatar

    I was so hoping the crappy “hey, a text thing I want to share, let me take a fucking attributionless accessibility-poisoning screenshot and upload it like a psychopath instead of just copy/pasting the link to the text or the text itself like a decent human being” routine would die with Reddit. We should be better than that here.

    TheSpookiestUser ,
    @TheSpookiestUser@lemmy.world avatar

    I even get why, images inherently get more eyes on them than articles through links, but the least we can do is include the source in the post body.
