YouTube will let you exclude Shorts from search results
Engadget••general
Key Points:
- YouTube has updated its advanced search tools to include Shorts as a content type, allowing users to exclude videos under three minutes from search results.
- This change aims to help users find longer, more detailed videos without sifting through numerous short clips, improving search relevance.
- The "Sort By" menu is now renamed "Prioritize," and "View Count" has been changed to "Popularity," which incorporates additional engagement metrics like watch time.
- Two previous filter options, "Upload Date - Last Hour" and "Sort by Rating," have been removed from the advanced search settings.
