How does this work? You watch 100’s of ~10 second videos in a row for hours? Trying to understand because this seems to be a common thing these days.
I have never tried tiktok and only saw some YouTube shorts. I see one or two and it annoys me because it’s clipped badly, gives bad information, or just shows something meaningless. Random loud music. The same video keeps playing on a loop as I try to think.
Even if it was great content, my brain just couldn’t stay focused beyond a couple videos. The constant changes to a new video would be exhausting for me. There’s also no time to think about what you just saw.
Yes I forgot about the vertical too. I guess it’s because the video isn’t worth the effort to turn the phone horizontal.
