      For real. I was watching them too much, installed a browser addon that hides the shorts button and disabled them in revanced. Usage went to 0 and I don’t miss them.

      It would be so easy for them if they actually cared.

    Create/exacerbate a problem, then offer a solution. Classic. It’s like a casino running a gambling rehab.
