    You can’t move around in them, it’s either play or pause and repeat, which sucks (as shorts don’t have to be short…)

    Oddly enough, this seems to be a desktop limitation. I can scrub backwards and forwards just fine on my phone.

      Hopefully desktop PC hardware will become powerful enough to gain the ability to skip around in 30 second videos someday. I think I read that they expect them to be at parity with smartphone hardware in the next decade or two.
