Depends on your content, some contents are good with shorts. You can create a long video and be boring, if you can create engaging short videos that attract a large number of views, you should continue to do so.

Depends on Niche. Youtube short is still a good option.

If your intention is to build audience for future, shorts is the way to go for. It pays less with google assistant but there are other ways to explore for making money with it.

i agree with friends, this is about your content. If you can get a million views with Short, it's short. But the profit of long-form videos will be more than short. You can direct viewers to your long-form videos via short by sharing sections with short that will allow them to be curious and watch the entire video.

You can create both, but yes you need a lot of effort to start seeing income from shorts, combine long and shorts always giving focus to shorts videos and for the long ones you can create 2 or 3 videos per week and you can make them 7 or 10 minutes long.
Thank you for this comment but: Can YT consider such shorts (snippets of an already posted longer video) as redundant, i.e self reupload, and so penalize the video(s) (=limit the video in browse and suggested) ?
Thank you.

I'm not talking about re-uploading snippets of a longer video that has already been posted. YouTube has the feature to create short videos from long-form videos. Using this feature of YouTube, you can create intriguing short videos from your long-form videos and direct short video viewers to your long-form videos.

Yes definitely; It's a good way to increase your subscribers because you can easily reach more people with them, which means you can get more likes and views on your videos. Don't see this as a way to make money though, because shorts are not meant to make money, but just to help you show your channel.

Focus on long videos if money is your sole target.

Shorts are a way to get more new eyes to your channel. You may not directly make much from it but it will help people discover your main channel. Right now people are just scrolling shorts all day so there is a high chance you will get new viewers who have never watched your channel before.
