About
Some YouTube shorts have some parts we want to watch again. However, the web version has no way to seek the video. So, whenever you want to replay a section, you'll have to wait for it to loop or open the short as a video. This extension redirects the page and opens it as a video in a new tab with a click. But it does not pause the short as of now.
