It completely removes the highly addictive Shorts format from your YouTube interface, allowing you to enjoy a clean, distraction-free video-watching experience. ✨ 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 🛡️ Total Shorts Eradication CleanTube doesn't just hide one or two things; it cleans up the entire interface: • Removes the "Shorts" button from the main left sidebar navigation. • Eliminates the "Shorts" shelves and annoying video rows from your Home Feed and Subscriptions. • Hides Shorts thumbnails from search results and recommended videos. ⚡ Lightning-Fast Engine-Level Redirection Did someone send you a direct link to a YouTube Short?
