Shorts to Normal Player - Chrome Extension for YouTube Shorts

Shorts to Normal Player is a Chrome Extension designed to enhance your YouTube viewing experience. Rather than playing YouTube short videos in the mini video player, this extension redirects to play them in the normal YouTube video player. By changing the URL from '.com/shorts/●●' to '.com/watch?v=●●', it ensures you obtain a comprehensive viewing experience that only the standard YouTube player can offer.

Does completely what it says and with no delay! Only it doesn't work the first time you click on a short until you reload it but then after that it does it every time! (Extensions are not loaded in unless you reload the page)
