>Are youtube shorts a failure? They seem to be immensely popular in terms of views/engagement.

I just think that's only because "the algorithm" prioritizes shorts at the moment to try and push them and make folks even bother making them. Once YouTube starts acting neutral towards them I don't think they'll hold up.

I've never come across a short intentionally and after seeing quite a few I haven't tried to find further ones (and outside of mobile it's quite difficult to do so).

That said of course, I'm probably not in the demographic shorts plays to either.
