About

Tired of seeing Shorts everywhere on YouTube?

This extension allows you to completely remove Shorts from the platform, giving you a cleaner and more focused experience.

Features
	•	Hides the Shorts shelf on the homepage
	•	Removes Shorts recommendations on video pages
	•	Removes the Shorts button from the sidebar menu
	•	Hides Shorts thumbnails and video suggestions across YouTube
	•	Works seamlessly during navigation (YouTube is a single-page app)

How it works
Open the extension popup and use the toggle to enable or disable Shorts hiding anytime.
No page reload required. YouTube will update automatically as you browse.

Why use it
If you prefer long-form content, tutorials, documentaries, or videos with depth, Shorts can feel distracting. This extension helps you restore the original YouTube experience.
