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)

- 目标用户
- YouTube desktop users who prefer the regular video player over the Shorts format / Users who want a cleaner YouTube experience without Shorts recommendations / Users who find the Shorts UI poorly optimized for PC
- Extension popup UI is partially in Japanese, indicating primary target audience may be Japanese users
- The 'hide shorts video' feature is marked as unstable in the UI warning
付费分析未识别到付费功能
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.
Shorts is the biggest productivity drop, I pay for youtube premium so it doesn't even help google. It just makes me more unhappy with their product. This is extension is a lifesaver for someone with adhd.
好用 配合ShortsBlocker和Hide YouTube Shorts連最近新增的觀看紀錄裡的shorts也全部消失 一點殘存的icon都沒有
Works as intended great for stopping distraction
Vielen vielen Dank!
Thank you for making it so I don't have to see any of that c**p again.
YoutubeShortのページのデザインが不自由で嫌だったので、この拡張機能を入れてYoutubeがすごく便利になりました。
works as intended, I think this is pretty great because shorts are designed to make you scroll for hours. This helps with fixing that problem. I also like that you can turn it off and on whenever.
I just want to block it because they are a huge time waste, my time is worth way more than those shorts
Thank you so much ☺
my life is forever changed
