    YouTube, it doesn’t count as an active monthly user when you make every user magically end up on a shorts video after a 2 second autoplay delay. I literally have to use a Firefox extension to block your shitty garbage TikTok wannabe vertical videos off of my desktop…

    There’s a cool greasyfork browser script that makes Shorts turn into regular videos, but not for apps yet.
