YouTube doesn’t want to stay behind TikTok and Instagram with its Reels, so in 2021, the platform launched YouTube Shorts – videos that are up to 60 seconds long. And though Shorts haven’t so far become as popular and loved as TikTok videos, there is a myriad of users who publish short clips on YouTube that you might want to download.
