      That’s not the face I make. Usually there’s more eyebrow commotion going on as I try to figure out why it’s taking so long to load the video or why I’m getting some random error message that means nothing to a rando trying to watch a video on their phone.

        If that’s on newpipe, try pipepipe. The devs hard forked a long while ago from newpipe and I only get problems only when YouTube does some new shit they try to block. The devs updates relatively quickly

        But it’s not a fair anecdote / comparison from me since I haven’t used newpipe for years now

    in 10 years we will probably get an option to hide feed altogether and forward users to their subscriptions.

      I absolutely hate that my subscription page is basically just recommendations and shorts at the top that I have to scroll past.

    Can we also turn off community posts? Why am I seeing them from random people I don’t give a shit about. I don’t even want to see them from the people I do care about.

    Man, I love shorts. My shit is curated af though. My algorithm is good to me. Mainly science facts, wood working, badminton, web dev tips, comedy, and Rocket League clips. Just what I like.

    I’m not getting the options to set them to 0 minutes. 15 min is the minimum. Guess Google realised their new setting to pay lip service to how much they respect their users’ time proved a bit too popular for their taste…
