We seem to be experiencing diminishing returns on tech for the past few years. More tech is no longer necessarily better. Is this just a phase before the next big industrial revolution?

Some observations on YouTube "shorts":

- The "shorts" have no video playback controls (apart from pause).

- "Shorts" take you out of a channel and into what seems (to me) a random stream of "shorts".

- The short, bit-sized format of "shorts" make them popular for mobile consumption.

The idea of short-format video is not new (e.g. Vine).
