    Not even just the fucking UI. I have bad internet so it takes several minutes to watch a short, presuming jt ever works. And it’s just shorts. A full video loads no problem, but a short requires so much to even try to start playing.

      I suspect it’s also frantically trying to preloaded a bunch of other videos.

      On my laptop, the UI is unresponsive for a solid minute until it loads several pages worth of comments and videos down the right side. It’s idiotic.

      I just hate the fact that when I open the youtube app, it just starts playing a random short. I have to stop the short to go to the search field which is the reason I opened the app.
