Since I have everyones attention. Looking for input on the following:

1) What is your go to platform for short form videos? (TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts, X, other?)

2) Do you find it annoying that reels mutes the video or do you find it more annoying that YouTube pauses it when you tap on the screen?

3) Likes and dislikes for each platform you use for short form video

1. Reels (I get sucked in), TikTok (best imo), Shorts rarely (but I think that's because most of my YouTube consumption is on desktop where it's hard to get sucked in to a short-form feed)

2. I prefer tap to mute, hold to pause. Feels more consistent with the autoplay, short-form, looping videos format rather than "bigger" videos that you press play (and pause) on.

3. Some things I enjoy across various platforms:
– Hold right side for 2x speed (many agree on here)
– Hold to pause + remove UI chrome
– Double tap to like (with UI + haptic feedback)
– Video scrubber at the bottom, expands on touch
– Easy share sheet with multi-selection allowed
– Video replies to comments (lower priority but nice)
