I think they are a great addition for the short 1 minute ideas some youtubers have that may as well be posted on their 2nd channel.
Imo it could be improved with a landscape option and longer than 1min vids.
Idk really. At that point it would be like a regular video.
But YT treats shorts differently so idk what the upsides (currently) are on the creator side.
And if they are beneficiary for the creator in regards to <1min content, why not give them the option of uploading in landscape. The more options the merrier?
Fair point. I really enjoy the short sketches and clips some youtuber are doing. Usually they are also less polluted with plugging stuff.
