YT Shorts, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook Reels... These are things I just don't bother watching.

The only reason social media companies took the controls away is because they know the videos being uploaded are shit but they want you to watch the whole thing for engagement. So they take away the controls to force that engagement. Go fuck yourself.

Also people who upload using these services - especially Shorts and Reels when other options exist on the same damn platform - are literally worse than Hitler.

Comparing video uploaders to genocidal dictators is a bit much. Especially when you can just use yt-dlp and watch the video in a media player instead

literally worse than Hitler.

Any minute now, somebody's gonna argue that it's incorrect to use literally this way. Happens every time I see the word used here on Lemmy lol

There's a name for that - it's called Cunningham's Law.

True, but only given that the first comment was wrong, which I wouldn't say so. But I've seen people who would, so it works lol

And they're wrong every time. You can use "literally" as a rhetorical exaggeration, bam, debate over. They're the same as the "could care less" crowd. "I already care very little, but I could care even less", solves it.

Well. You kind of did. Are you like Switzerland here?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Oh no haha, I don't agree that it's incorrect. I'm firmly on the pro-literally-as-a-hyperbole side lol

Shorts You can replace 'short' in the link to 'v' and its a regular video page and doesnt repeat and plays in the normal player

There's also the Firefox browser pluggin shorts blocker

Idk about shorts but for TikTok, creators have the ability to turn this feature on or off, this isn’t the norm.
