How am I not surprised? Shorts is video equivalent of cancer.
Comment on The bizarre, dismal page you see if you open YouTube without an account.

Tried this on a private window, and yes, that’s what it looks like. Thought I’d click on Shorts and let the first 3 seconds of the opening auto-play video play. Then back to the home page and wow, full of absolute trash.

Holy shit it works, and transforms the front page into an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE

I’m like, “Is this what normal people in 2025 watch?” I feel like an alien on earth, except the planet changed and not me.

WHY IS EVERYTHING SO FAST AND THERE IS SO MUCH TEXT AND MANY FILTERS AND EFFECTS STOP MAKING SUCH DEEP EYE CONTACT WITH ME AND MOVING AROUND AT A BREAKNECK PACE
I have ADHD and this is NOT made for me, it makes me DEEPLY uncomfortable. Every video seems like that gif of Morshu from Link: Faces of Evil sped up to hell moving around but explaining a shitty fake lifehack or something.
I hate it all.
