YouTube Updates Shorts Experience To Focus On Original Content

YouTube has adjusted its Short recommendations so that users will see less original content, 9to5 Google reports. Shorts is built on quick, attention-grabbing content, and one easy way of
creating them is to knock out portions of long-form videos. To improve the Shorts experience for everyone, we’re updating our recommendation systems to further prioritize original content and
reduce the reach of content re-uploaded from other creators without adding anything of your own,” YouTube says.
