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

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.
It would be nice if the problem with replies not showing could be fixed
thx you save peoples!!!!

Shorts have no place in my life
Would be 5 stars, but there's a bug that breaks reply's in comments.
No option to leave shorts tab in watch history to be able to remove items that got there using mobile clients without such extension. Also, remove "Most relevant" subscriptions block is needed.
Thank you
Seems to be doing exactly what I wanted. Simply make shorts disappear so I stop frying my brain and wasting my time.
ЕСТЬ РЕЗУЛЬТАТ! Шортсы как корова языком слизала! Спасибо!
Used this for a while, and it does the job well... or it did. Unfortunately rating 1 star as for the last several months there's been a bug that completely breaks comments (specifically you can't expand replies), not even related to shorts as it's even broken on regular videos or text/image posts. Unfortunately makes this plugin unusable for me, if it gets fixed at some point I may reinstall and modify this review.
