  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

I've never understood the hatred of shorts. They're perfect for pooping time

Please don't poop in your shorts

I only dislike shorts because there are no player controls. I want to be able to rewind to any point of the video, pause at will, and adjust the volume independent of my phone/computer volume.

That's why I downloaded the addon to redirect all YouTube shorts to the regular player so it forces all those features to be on.

The lack of player controls is 100% my biggest gripe as well

I'm a professional doomscroller and can hardly controle myself if I'm on the search for a quick dopamine rush. It consumes too much of my time.
