Instead of just fighting TikTok, fueling the short video trend could undermine YouTube’s existing ad business.

    no seek bar

    I really don’t understand who thought that removing the seek bar from a video player was a good idea…

        I only tried it on desktop. There’s a tiny progress bar at the bottom, but you can’t interact with it.

      Even TikTok has a seek bar and has for a long time.
