(www.theverge.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Shorts: just a normal YouTube video but it's too short to be useful, and most useful functionality had been removed.you can't skip ahead or go back if you didn't hear something, you just have to watch it again and again.
Shorts is something a manager came up with. It doesn't make it better, it makes it worse, but it also attracts more views, so profit!
The article indicated that, apparently, Shorts is even more unprofitable than regular YouTube. So they don't even have that going for them
