I really hate youtube shorts. Can I completely turn them off? And whose idea was that??

  +1 I pay a premium subscription to not see ads, and I wish were able to disable shorts as well.

  It was the idea of all the people that gave TikTok so much watch time.

  There are extensions which will convert shorts into the regular UI, you should be able to find one through Google.

  I don't really mind that they added a new interface for viewing short videos. Buy what I don't like is that when I get linked to the new player it is lacking tons of features for no apparent upside (you can work around this by manually fixing the URL) and your can't play then via Chromecast (but old vertical videos not tagged #shorts work perfectly fine). Sure, add a browser for short vertical videos. But don't ruin the existing experience for no reason.
