About No Shorts Mode for YouTube™

Tired of wasting time on YouTube Shorts? Take control with No Shorts Mode. No Shorts Mode for YouTube is a new extension that lets you hide and block, or redirect Shorts, so you can enjoy YouTube without distractions. Choose between three simple modes: Block: Hide all Shorts and block them from playing. Redirect: Open Shorts in the regular video player, so you can’t endlessly scroll through them. Off: YouTube works normally. Stay focused, save time, and enjoy YouTube your way. Notes: 1. In Block mode, you can allow Shorts to play in the regular video player when opened directly, so Shorts shared by others still open normally.
