RIP YouTube Stories

YouTube is now urging creators to put more emphasis on short format content via Shorts and Community Posts. Recently, YouTube made Community Posts available to all creators, eliminating the need to have 500 subscribers to enable the Community Tab on their channel. It also rolled out additional features like photo editing and a 24-hour expiry period for posts.
