Shorts to Normal Player & Blocker

About

📄 Detailed Description

  Take back control of your YouTube experience.
  Shorts to Normal silently runs in the background — redirecting Shorts
  and cleaning your feed without any manual effort.

  🔀 AUTO-REDIRECT SHORTS
  • /shorts/ URLs are instantly redirected to the standard /watch player.
  • Works on feed clicks, direct links, and externally shared URLs.
  • Toggle on/off anytime from the popup — no reload needed.

  🚫 HIDE SHORTS FROM FEED
  • Removes Shorts cards, shelf rows, and reel sections from your
    homepage and search results.
  • Uses resilient href-based selectors — survives YouTube UI updates.
  • Controlled independently from the redirect toggle.

  ⚙️ TWO INDEPENDENT TOGGLES
  • Redirect and Feed Blocking work separately — use one or both.
  • Settings persist locally across all browser sessions.

  🔒 100% PRIVATE, ZERO BLOAT
  • No data collection. No tracking. No external servers.
  • Runs entirely in your browser.
  • Minimal permissions: webNavigation + storage only.

  PERFECT FOR:
  • Viewers who prefer the full /watch player over the vertical Shorts format.
  • Anyone who wants a focused, distraction-free YouTube homepage.
  • Users who keep accidentally landing on Shorts from shared links.
