AI 产品解读YouTube Shorts blocking and redirection extension that converts Shorts URLs to regular video player URLs and hides Shorts content
Users who dislike the YouTube Shorts vertical video format and poor desktop UI can automatically redirect Shorts to play in the regular video player with better controls
1. User installs extension and it activates automatically on YouTube pages
2. When navigating to a Shorts URL, extension intercepts and redirects to regular video player
3. Extension monitors DOM changes and hides Shorts content (tabs, video thumbnails) based on user settings
4. User can toggle features on/off via the popup menu (enable/disable extension, hide Shorts tab, hide Shorts videos)

The extension is completely free with no payment processing, subscription management, or premium feature gating. All features (redirect shorts, hide shorts tab, hide shorts videos, extended GUI) are available without any paywall. The keyword 'subscription' hit was from _metadata/verified_contents.json (Chrome's signature file), and 'pro' hits were false positives from 'properly' text and JavaScript Promise objects.

- The extension operates entirely locally without any authentication system. It only uses chrome.storage.local to save user preferences. No login UI, no user account creation, no authentication tokens, and no external service authentication are present in the codebase.
works perfectly for me under Edge browser, I guess Google is doing some nasty stuff behind to prevent extensions like this to function correctly as it will hurt their revenue. So probably switch to another chromium-based browser like Brave, Edge, Opera etc.
Foi a única que realmente me impediu de conseguir acessar o subdomínio "youtube.com/shorts" com eficiência.
perfeito.
still works with opera
this was a holy-grail, now no longer works :(
does not work on PC with Chrome I still see YouTube Shorts in my recommended videos on the right when watching a video. You can block YouTube shorts from the main recommendations page from the three dots, but it only last 30 days, was hoping this extension would fix this, but youtube also puts them in recommendation to the right of videos. This extension was maybe good a very long time ago, but it needs updating to counter the YouTube people who want you to watch endless short videos ... it's always about $$$$, they run more ads, make more money, remove the possibility to block a channel from the channel page. Don't waste your time with this extension, YouTube already made it obsolete.

Thank you. I do not watch shorts at all and don't intend to. Glad to get them off my subs page.
Все супер, работает
