Will this format be okay for YouTube shorts?

I want to start YouTube Shorts. However, I struggle with editing the videos. What I don't mind doing is posting my face and making jokes in a format like TikTok or Instagram Reels.

I barely see such videos on Youtube Shorts, though. My recommendation show me refined edits from movies or long videos.
Another question. I have an old account that has some videos (not touched since 2015). Do i have to upload on this account or create a new one? And do you have to upload Shorts from the phone or from a computer?

Thank you a lot

Youtube shots has more info content then tiktok or instagram. Try to focus on that. Showing face is major plus.
shorts have recently removed 60 sec limit, that means you can upload longer content.
Comedy content perform poorly on youtube when it comes to monetization.
Aged youtube account have advantages then a fresh one due to more trust. You will be able get extra features like clickable links faster then new account. You can use phone and pc doesn't matter much.

Thank you. What formats are performing the best in your opinion where I could use face but less editing?

You can upload your shorts from your phone or computer. It doesn't matter.
The 2015 account is aged, and that's a good thing. You don't have to create a new account.
 
You can definitely upload Shorts from both phone and PC, no problem there. As for the old account, I’d recommend using it since it already has some history it can actually help with trust and reach.

Simple shorts work fine you can use your old account and upload from any device
 
If you want to do Shorts with your face and jokes, it can work — YouTube just recommends what gets high watch time, so your style might fill a gap; you can safely use your old 2015 account (aged accounts usually perform better than new ones), and you can upload Shorts either from phone or computer — just make sure the video is vertical and under 60s.

Keep it simple authentic, funny face videos work great on Shorts without heavy editing. Use your old account; fresh content can reactivate it. Uploading from your phone is easiest, but desktop works if the format fits. Consistency and personality matter more than fancy edits.
 
You can upload videos from both your phone and PC without any problems. Using an old account with an existing history is a significant advantage, increasing the credibility and reach of the channel. In terms of content, the appearance of faces is appreciated. At the same time, YouTube has lifted the 60-second limit, allowing you to upload longer Shorts. However, if the main goal is to make money, note that comedy content tends to have poor monetization performance on YouTube.

What does have a good monetization?
 
YouTube Shorts is still growing, and its algorithm sometimes pushes highly edited clips or repurposed content from movies and longer videos because they’re visually appealing and hold attention
You can upload Shorts from both devices. However, many creators find it easier and faster to record and upload directly from their phones, since Shorts are vertical videos and often filmed with mobile devices
 
There are a lot of videos. May be youtube just doesnt recommend you.
Many news video use AI face to bypass youtube

If you’re comfortable on camera and joking, stick to that authenticity wins on Shorts. Editing doesn’t have to be fancy; simple cuts work. Use your old account if it has any engagement; otherwise, fresh start is fine. Shorts upload is easiest from mobile, but desktop works too. Focus on consistency over polish.
