YouTube started showing likes instead of views in my main feed today. Can’t say I like it.

    They also started removing the shorts on the home page.

    If I’m just waiting or passing a bit of time, I’ll look on my homepage and every 4th video or so it’s a box with 4 shorts in them, so I can pick the short. This doesn’t play an ad though.

    Youtube removes that for me now, and I have to go to the “shorts” section, and watch whatever short comes up on the next swipe. Then they can put ads between swipes.

    What I hate is that I watch 0.3 seconds of a short and swipe because it’s not the content I like, it’s some trending shit. Youtube still then suggest me full videos from these people like it’s content I would watch. I didnt “watch” the short, dont put it in my feed.

    It might be time to find something else to kill time
