As a fellow chronic pain sufferer, I sympathize. But the answer is not to make YouTube more like TikTok, it’s for people like you to go to TikTok, which is already set up for viewing like that. The world is not built to cater to people like you and me. We’re a minority and we need special care and we can’t expect everyone else to accommodate that.
Tiktok doesn’t have shorts from all my favorite channels though. Shorts is obviously supposed be YouTube’s “answer” to Tiktok, but it’s a different vibe, IMHO. I’ve tried to get into Tiktok and it just doesn’t do it for me.
IMHO, I think they just need to add a toggle for shorts so that people can opt out (or in, whichever).

A toggle sounds fair.
