I just used an extension to block them. They kept trying to feed me right-wing bullshit. Easy fix

I wish they would just get rid of shorts all together. Vertical video shouldn’t exist.

Oh, ffs, make up your damn mind.

Nobody really wanted them, but now that people are using it, you want to limit it? The entire executive roster for alphabet needs to take a submarine ride

They probably figured that shorts don’t generate as much as a video with an ad break every 2 minutes.

I’ve been using this:

https://github.com/Vulpelo/hide-youtube-shorts

since YT started the “shorts” bullshit. Highly recommended if you are civilized person who is not OK with vertical videos.

I migrated away from the mobile app to PipePipe just to avoid shorts and I pay for premium.

But they don’t let you to entirely block them either but only to hide them for 30 days at a time.

Can I set the timer to 0 seconds?
