Please ban YT shorts too.
well fighting against propaganda is a good thing
I have seen it's true face. Social media is an extended gutter and the gutter is full of ads and when the drains finally scab over all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their pop-ups and clickbait will foam up about their waists and and all the reply guys and soy boys will look up and shout "save us!"... and I'll look down and whisper... "No."
Is that Watchmen?
I recognize that last line, but can't remember where it's from.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Why? I love Shorts! Takes me back to the days of early YouTube, when not everything had to be a 30+ minute video and you could still discover small unknown channels just from browsing. Shorts is the best thing to happen to YouTube since they added HD support back in 2010.
Please explain yourself.
