    That’s the reason YouTube is pushing shorts so hard. They want people to continuously stream short bytes of content with short ads, which pay out way better than long form videos with longer ads

        It kills me that they shove them so hard, like I dont hate them but I want normal content. Youtube pushed 10 minute plus videos so hard they bloated decent channels so I cant get through as many as I want anymore but then shoved 1 minute clips down my throat
