For me its just perfect. You can still watch the short videos, but they dont appear as shorts anymore. Now its just like a normal video. The best Thing is that it prevents you from scrolling.

Thank you very much for such a great extension, Lenna

Simple and effective extension that blocks YouTube Shorts right after installation, with no extra setup needed. Clean, lightweight, and doesn’t interfere with normal video watching. Great for staying focused and avoiding endless short-form distractions. A very practical tool overall.
