Have you seen the CLIP icon on YouTube?
The clip feature is currently in limited alpha, so you will not see this on that many videos yet.
When you do clips look like this.
It will be interesting to see where this goes.
Thoughts?

Twitter homepage - Feb 2021
I don't see the homepage often, as I'm usually logged in. It's interesting to note changes in how Twitter present themselve.

Tweets from followed lists showing in Home stream
This is new. The screenshot shows a tweet from a Twitter list showing in the users home stream.
To be clear the user is not following the person, the person is included in a list (made by a different account) that the user has followed and pinned.
This is sort of like tweets from Topics one is following, which can also appear in the home stream.

Watch on YouTube 🤔
I've this "Watch on YouTube" overlay, in the bottom left corner of some YouTube video embeds.
When clicked it opens the watch page with the variable "emb_imp_woyt" at the end of the URL.
I can't find any info on it and the overlay has now (for me) stopped showing.
Anyone know anything about this?

Geo-tag OR Hashtag?
YouTube currently seems to allow you to Geo-tag a video OR hashtag a video, but not do both.
Bizzarly it seems that although YouTube's instructions with hashags are to add them in your video title or description, it appears that inclusion on the hashtag landing page is dependant on the hastag showing in the video chin, the small space below the video just above the video title.
The chin is where any geo-tag you have applied to the video shows and applying a geo-tag prevents any applied hashtags from showing in the chin.
So, it's really a choice of either or and for me in this use-case I dropped the geo-tag so that the video does get indexed for the hashtag page.
I'll seek some clarity from YouTube about this, as it would be helpful to be able to geo-tag AND use hashtags.

YouTube is pushing Shorts on mobile
I see that the mobile view for channels is starting to heavily push "Shorts" which is still in beta.
To take advantage you just need to upload videos which are under on min long and in a vertical format.

Why people are choosing to quit social media
There are some interesting points here, but I really wish we could stop using the blanket term "social media" and treat the different aspects idividually.
What I do like about "social media" are the apportunities for communication.
