I know they're pushing shorts because they wanna compete with tiktok, but I don't get it. I know I'm a freak that only uses.. 75% of my horizontal screen space and don't use it fullscreen but the problem doesn't go away if I put firefox on fullscreen, just the thumbnails get bigger but the text posts are still squashed and shorts are still huge. if I click on the subscription page however the thumbnails are the size they would be if I was using fullscreen, so it's kind of a mess.
