1min? Only if half the screen is someone playing with slime or subway surfer

I still remember YouTube starting out before Google and in those times, it was a remarkable feat just to get vids beyond 5 min let alone an hour. Now we’re back to vids just being under a min. Crazy world.

The complete lack of attention span is staggering. Half a video of slime, other half some girl doing makeup or pretending to be multiple characters in some nonsense scenario.

There’s loads of quality content on YouTube. You just have to create your subscriber list and not pay attention to the Home tab, which is, and always has been, utter garbage.

I’m not hating or anything—and you’re right, at least with what I’ve seen I do get a lot of shorts based on what I personally subscribe to. I don’t always get that but the ones I like I already recognize who they’re from. I was mainly just pointing out how its changed over time to have shorter videos. People still make longer vids, yes. All I’m saying is once upon a time, people were fighting to get longer videos. It’s just silly to me that now because Google has to “compete” with TikTok, they purposefully embed this kind of thing on their platform which, as I say, is just silly to me. No hate… just silly.

Yeah, I’m subscribed to over 4000 channels so that keeps my home screen popping with a lot of channels. I’m already currently subscribed to, but you’re right it is a lot of garbage to go through.
