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.
Works as advertised. Others need to learn to use a computer before leaving a 1-star review.
Doesn't work. No idea how it has all these 5 star reviews. Installed, shorts still display in my subs feed and elsewhere
This extension works and allows me to actually see new videos that I subscribe. Only because one person decides to post 20 or more shorts hiding everyone else I want to see.
It doesn't work. Shorts still come up and play with no real controls. Hiding them from the menu also doesn't work. Chrome version 110.0.5481.77 (Official Build) (64-bit) on Windows 11 Pro 22H2
it just works <3
Doesn't work. Shorts still appear in yt search results, in the shorts bar. Pointless.
Muito bom! Para quem não funcionou, você tem que clicar nos três pontinhos e depois marcar as duas caixinhas que estão em branco. Só isso ;D
It made the stupid shorts disappear! Thank you!!
Works great!
Супер, работает идеально.
