The over promotion of low effort content. It’s insane how YT has changed from videos that seem like they took time and effort to create to becoming a cesspool of 15 second shorts. This is mainly a result of the community showing a larger interest in short form content, and while it is not 100 percent YouTube’s fault, it is still annoying. Combined with the fact that you can not hide the shorts despite never wanting to watch them, is one of the few changes have made me more mad than this one. Half of these shorts are very inappropriate and end up getting targeted towards children. They are YouTube’s main viewers because they are rotting their brains while glued to their tablets.
