      Shorts are annoying, but now they started cluttering the subscription page with community posts.

      It’s bad, but especially when you browse in landscape Mode on a phone. They get blown up so big you have to scroll like 3 pages for one post, and there’s a lot of them.

      And they will stay on your page forever and wont go away. No option to click them away at all.

      Shorts (as a format) aren’t the problem, it’s what you watch. If you train the algorithm to serve you garbage, then of course it’s gonna serve you garbage ¯_(ツ)_/¯

        I literally never watch shorts. I’ve selected the option to show less shorts on my computer, I select the not interested option on each individual video on my TV when the row of them shows up, and they still constantly come back.
