    Autoplay with no sound but you need the sound to understand it and your trying to click the tiny mute icon then you finally get it unmuted and there’s no obvious way to rewind and then it starts playing the next video and you can’t get back to it.

    Not just to you, to everyone. I don’t even click on tiktok, Instagram, YouTube shorts or any other aids platforms links.

      Same way, those messages are unread until a new non tiktok link is sent. Don’t care, I refuse to go to those parasitic sites

    I miss blogs.

    The same shit but less time consuming.

    Videos are a time eater and waster. I can reader faster than you can present it in a video.

      Blogs are alive and well if you know where to find them, try looking around on neocities

      Everytime i need a reminder or a quick tutorial, everything but videos seems to get burried by google. It became absolute trash, i want to go back to altavista.

      I agree so much. I can’t understand how apparently most people in the world can stand videos that you can’t seek, pause or change the speed of. And which are all in vertical format!

      There’s a setting for it, but the fact that you have to choose it is a clear case of deliberately inflating viewcounts.

        Youtube enhancer can hide shorts or convert them to video layout instead

        I use the latter because i watch food shorts but with the comfort of actual youtube ui

        Wait there’s a setting to turn it off? I’m off to find that setting cause comments on the autoplayers on shorts is so old

        I wasn’t able to find one, disappointing.

          Setting is probably a bad word choice. You can unselect looping by right clicking the video on a desktop, but I believe it only works for that video.
