YouTube has rolled out a new feature that allows users to set their Shorts feed limit to zero minutes, effectively removing short-form videos from their feed. This option is designed to help users combat distractions and promote healthier viewing habits. Previously, the lowest limit available was 15 minutes, which prompted users to take breaks after that time. The feature was initially integrated with parental controls, allowing guardians to set limits for younger users. Now, all users can access this option. To activate it, users need to go to the 'Settings' page in the YouTube app, select 'Time management,' and scroll down to the 'Daily limits' section. Users can also choose other time limits, with a maximum of two hours available if they prefer not to eliminate Shorts entirely.
