I don't go that crazy that crazy over it. I noticed a while back that a short did well and started to put older vids up as shorts to see how they did and it started working
So I just kept repurposing old content as shorts. So far it's been great
Seems to be reaching new audience, gaining some new subs, etc. youtube seems to be really pushing shorts like mad.
I think you are right though, they can't beat tiktok. it's too late for that. Still, im happy to re share my vids to gain a bit of traction and some new eyeballs
I'd suggest it for everyone honestly. Putting a vid on youtube these days is rough, getting any traction is very rare. But on shorts, it's a different story.

Yeah, they're pushing shorts super hard. I think that's a mistake, they won't out-tiktok tiktok.
It's so interesting when you hang around some of the Youtube subreddits. People are so focused on the algorithm and gaming it. Every view is overanalyzed down to the point where they're willing to do anything to "get promoted by the algorithm", super angry because they don't get the views "they deserve", that they have been shadow banned (no such thing on yt) etc. I think that's just a super sure way to burnout...
