I ducking hate how they removed functionality from them. They don't show when they were posted, you can't speed them up or slow them down, they repeat forever which is annoying if your going through the comments, the buttons being on top of the video obscures it, I can't cast them to the TV from my phone (which is weird because it will play them if I select them directly from the TV app), it's just a terrible UX overall. I never swipe up and I'm starting to get annoyed with how cumbersome it is to exit out to watch regular videos once I've watched the short I clicked on. I really don't understand why YouTube wants to sacrifice everything that makes it great to be more like tiktok. If I wanted that format, I would go to tiktok.
