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.
Saves so much time, thank you!!
Godsend! short content is poison!
Thanks for the fast turn around for fixing shorts! A blank space is better than my feed cluttered with stuff I don't want to see.
exactly what I needed. Hides all shorts all I needed to do was refresh YouTube
Great extension, but a bug has been introduced recently. The subscriptions page now doesn't show the thumbnails or correct link for shorts. Instead, it gives the channel name, with the link to the channel rather than the specific video. Unfortunately, this makes the extension unusable. Hope the author can fix it. I think all that needs to be done is to exclude the extension from the subscriptions page.
This definitely saved my OCD for youtube videos. Have to leave a comment!
Really a cool extension.
Отлично, а то достала куча мусора в подписках. 07.06.2023, из-за каких-то изменений ютуба плагин перестал работать
nb,终于看不到傻逼Shorts了
Does what it says, and does it well. Some time after I installed it, an extra feature came in, enabled by default, that was detrimental to my browsing: It just hides shorts completely. No warning, it just assumes you want them hidden and hides them by default. I installed this extension to make watching the shorts that I want to watch more pleasant, not HIDE them completely! Developer: When you add features in, DO NOT enable them by default!
