thinkx ?
didn't hide shorts tab
Occasionally works, usually doesn't.
Would be nice if this extension could also block "Shorts remixing this video" section on the right that is shown when you watch a music video.
The creator of this has my undying respect. I hate shorts and hate losing time on them. This fixes it.
I can browse youtube again without getting sucked into mindless garbage.
What a life saver! Would be five stars but it currently can be buggy and still show shorts at times. With a little more polish and work out the hiding the shorts (I know it says beta) and they get that stable, definitely a 5 stars from me!
