JAKARTA The majority of YouTube users prefer to see videos in long formats compared to short formats in Shorts. However, recently reports emerged that Shorts will be open automatically.
YouTube has made various efforts to attract more users to Shorts, one of which is to display Shorts content by default when the app opens. That way, users will be redirected to the Shorts feed instead of the homepage.
However, this policy has a number of rules. YouTube only displays Shorts automatically if users do access short format content before the app closes. However, some users discovered an oddity in their YouTube app.
According to a report by a number of users on Reddit, citing from 9to5google, YouTube will immediately display Shorts even though the last content they opened was a long format video. This problem certainly annoys users who don't like Shorts.

Surprisingly, this bug causes the Shorts feed to appear above Beranda. To remove the feed, users only need to get out of their feed and the homepage will be visible immediately. In recent weeks, complaints about this problem have escalated.
However, it is not clear how widely the problem is spread, such as where this problem arises and how many users are affected. It is also not known whether this problem only attacks Android phones or is also found on iOS.
If the user simply stops on the app or closes it forcibly, this problem will not be resolved. If you are one of the affected and completely disturbed by the bug, you can delete the cache or YouTube app's storage to solve the problem.
