“because that prevents the creator from being rewarded for viewership”

They could probably retain users simply by running ads every 10 minutes, rather than every 3 minutes.

Oh but they don’t care about anything but short form content. If they could ditch supporting long form content today they would.

This reply makes me so happy. The books are always better.
