I wrote this little quick and dirty userscript for myself sometime back: // ==UserScript== // @name No Shorts // @match https://www.youtube.com/shorts/* // @match https://www.facebook.com/reel/* // ==/UserScript== window.document.body.innerHTML = '' This isn't as comprehensive as the uBlock filter but it has worked pretty well for me so far.

Here is another one I found in my personal userscripts. I believe this script is more effective than my previous one because it prevents recommendations for Shorts or other videos from being shown. // ==UserScript== // @name No YT Sidebar and Shorts // @match https://www.youtube.com/* // ==/UserScript== function noYTSidebar () { const element = document.getElementById('secondary') if (element === null) { window.setTimeout(noYTSidebar, 1000) return } element.getElementById('secondary').style.display = 'none' } function noYTShorts () { const elements = document.querySelectorAll('ytd-rich-shelf-renderer') if (elements.length === 0) { window.setTimeout(noYTShorts, 1000) return } for (e of document.querySelectorAll('ytd-rich-shelf-renderer')) { e.style.display = 'none' } } noYTSidebar() noYTShorts()

  This is what I used, they have field `is-short`, https://github.com/epicseven-cup/remove-youtube-short/blob/main/src/content.ts#L3-L23 https://github.com/epicseven-cup/remove-youtube-short/blob/m... https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/remove-youtube-short/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/remove-youtub...

    Thanks for sharing. I realised I have several userscripts I've written over time to tackle web browsing distractions. I found another one and this is probably the most effective for me because it hides Shorts at the CSS level. That means I don't need to rely on setTimeout(..., 1000) to catch elements that get inserted dynamically after the page loads. (function () { const css = ` #secondary { display: none } .ytd-rich-shelf-renderer { display: none } ` const style = document.createElement('style') style.textContent = css document.head.appendChild(style) })()

  I did a firefox addon 3 months ago. You can disable/enable things in addon menu. I'm using Study mode actively as I'm a student. https://github.com/ErenayDev/YouTube-Focus https://github.com/ErenayDev/YouTube-Focus
