About Shortless

Shortless removes YouTube Shorts from your feed – no account, no tracking, no servers. THREE MODES • Off – Shortless does nothing. • Hide all Shorts – Shorts disappear from home, search, channels and the sidebar. • Subscribed channels only – Shorts from channels you subscribe to stay visible; everything else is hidden. MORE OPTIONS • Hide the Shorts entry in the navigation. • Hide the Shorts tab on channel pages. • Auto-redirect /shorts/<id> to the regular player (/watch). • Custom channel whitelist. • Configurable cache lifetime for the subscription list. PRIVACY • No sign-in, no accounts, no analytics. • No external servers – everything runs locally in your browser. • Needs only access to youtube.com plus local storage for your settings. COMPATIBILITY • Desktop (www.youtube.com) and mobile web (m.youtube.com). • When signed out, all Shorts are hidden automatically. Open source: https://github.com/Digitmedia-de/Shortless
