A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Minus one for that media player. Lack of controls is really irritating. I don’t care to be forced into vertical videos, either—despite what some puppets think.
Its funny because tiktock has a landscape mode now and full controls. The thing theyre trying to copy has more rich controls but they stay on track with painfully limited media player. I use an extension on browser that just opens them in a normal player.
Enhancer for YouTube gives you options to have shorts displayed as standard videos with all that that implies.
