YouTube's clone of TikTok, "YouTube Shorts," is rolling out to the US as we speak. The feature launched in India this September and was first spotted on US devices by XDA Developers. Just like TikTok, Shorts lets users make and share bite-sized, one-minute videos, and users can swipe between them on the mobile app.
抖音短视频的油管克隆版有关短视频 "YouTube Shorts"正在美国推出。该功能于今年9月在印度推出，并由XDA Developers首次在美国设备上发现。和抖音一样，油管短视频可以让用户制作和分享一分钟大小的视频，用户可以在移动应用上滑动它们。
YouTube Shorts first launched in India in September—a smart move, since TikTok has been banned in India since June. With no competition from the incumbent in India, YouTube Shorts has taken off in the country, with YouTube recently announcing Shorts was getting "more than 3.5 billion daily views." TikTok is owned by the Chinese company ByteDance, and that earned it (and 100+ other Chinese services) a ban in India. TikTok was under attack from the Trump administration, too, and for a time we were expecting it to be purchased by Oracle. After losing the election, the Trump administration lost interest in TikTok, and now it seems that the company will be able to continue operating in the US.
油管短视频于9月首次在印度推出--这是一个明智之举，因为抖音自6月起在印度被禁止。由于在印度没有现成的竞争者，油管短视频在印度已经起飞，油管最近宣布其短视频的 "日浏览量超过35亿次"。抖音由中国公司字节跳动拥有，这让它（以及其他100多个中国服务）在印度遭到了禁令。抖音也受到了特朗普政府的攻击，我们一度期待它能被甲骨文收购。输掉大选后，特朗普政府对抖音失去了兴趣，现在看来，这家公司将能够继续在美国运营。

Some of my subs have been doing these for awhile. I really hope YouTube will do something to separate shorts from normal content. But based on how they're unable to separate YouTube Music from YouTube (even though they provide that as an option), I'm not holding my breath.
我关注的一些博主已经做了一段时间的这些油管短视频。我真的希望油管会做一些事情，将短片与正常内容分开。但基于他们如何无法将油管音乐分离出来（即使他们提供了一个选项），所以我也不抱太大指望了。

I give it a year and a half before Google pulls the plug on this.
我给它一年半的时间，谷歌就会取消这个油管短视频。

It will long live on in the cluttered jumble of long- and short-form videos that result from the implementation of this copypasta.
如果就这么抄袭的话，它将长期生活在杂乱无章的长短视频混乱中。

I guess 60 seconds of video is now worth 140 characters.
However, I don't expect this new service to be around for long: it will be gone shortly, even.
我觉得60秒的视频也就够说140个字符。
然而，我并不指望这项新服务会存在很久：它将很快消失。

I'll take this over TikTok ... for now.
然而我现在就要用这个油管短视频取代抖音了，至少目前如此。

Yeah, I find it actually rather annoying. I prefer a 10-15 minute video that actually explains stuff in context over the <1 minute "look at this guys" crap.
是的，我也觉得短视频其实挺烦人的。我更喜欢一个10-15分钟的视频，能实在解释一些东西的内容，而不是不到1分钟的 "看看这个家伙 "的垃圾视频。

Really wish they'd put them on a separate app...
所以我真切希望谷歌单独出一个短视频APP好了。

I never understood why youtube never did anything to support vertical video. Boxing it in 16:9 is ridiculous. Okay in 2005 but not 2015. "Vertical video is bad" is a very lazy excuse to not handle it.
我一直不明白为什么油管从来不做任何事情来真正支持短视视频发展。把它装在16:9的格子画面里是可笑的。在2005年还好，但在2015年就不行了。"短视频不好 "只是“不想好好做”的一个非常懒惰的借口。

So, lets make sure I follow the logic here.
The algorithm stopped making short videos profitable so many creators started making longer form content and now Youtube is trying to make short videos a thing to compete with Tik-Tok.
Alright then but, how does the revenue model work for the creators here?
I also assume from the phrasing this is a mobile only product, but the media is all just on youtube as well or did I mis-understand how this is setup
所以，让我说说我的逻辑吧。
算法让短视频不再有利可图，所以很多创作者开始制作长视频。现在油管想让短视频成为与抖音竞争的对手。
那好吧，但是，这里的创作者的收入模式是怎么算的呢？
我也假设从他们措辞来看这是一个移动产品，但媒体内容都只是在油管上，难倒是我误解了如何设置成移动的？

I'm in for 12 months till the end is announced, and 3 more before it's dead.
我打赌12个月就会宣布关停，然后再过3个月就彻底死翘翘了。

YouTube desperately wants to be a social network. But I don't want YouTube to be a social network. I don't follow influencers, I subscribe to content that I'm interested in. I don't want to see posts by my "favorite" channels, I don't want to see a feed of upxes about a channel, I don't want to see stories by creators, I don't want to see short-form content from them, I don't want to know information about their personal lives, I don't want to comment on their videos, I don't want to join their community. I want to watch the long-form content I enjoy, uploaded by the person who makes it, end of relationship. I'm even willing to watch ads to get it!
油管极力想成为一个社交网络。但我不想让油管成为一个社交网络。我不关注有影响力的人，我只订阅我感兴趣的内容。我不想看到我 "最爱 "的频道的文章，我不想看到一个频道的更新信息，我不想看到创作者的故事，我不想看到他们的短篇内容，我不想知道他们的个人生活信息，我不想评论他们的视频，我不想加入他们的社区。我想看我喜欢的长篇内容，由制作者上传，仅此而已。我甚至愿意看广告来获得它!

How is this meant to be different to YouTube stories (those other short YouTube clips?). I guess we know it's a Google product as there are already two different implementations that are inferior to the original product (normal YouTube).
这和“油管故事”（那些其他的油管短片？）有什么不同？我想这应该是谷歌的产品，因为已经有两种不同的实现方式，却比原来的产品（普通YouTube）要更差。

I'm not a huge fan of this since I primarily watch longer form content on YouTube. So far, it seems like all the videos are vertical too (at least in my subscxtion feed), which looks pretty terrible with the letterboxing in the desktop 16:9 player.
我不是一个短视频的大粉丝，因为我主要在油管上观看较长形式的内容。到目前为止，似乎所有的视频也都是垂直的（至少在我的订阅源中），这与桌面16:9播放器中的字母框配合看起来非常糟糕。
