Youtube Shorts Blocker Firefox

Youtube Shorts Blocker

Removes the shorts from Youtube

Features & Capabilities

This plugin will hide the shorts videos from the Youtube interface. It will not change any other aspect of the user experience.

The Short videos will no longer be suggested to the user in the following places:

  • in the home page
  • in the menus
  • in the search result page
  • in the video's player page, in the right panel. An option can also be activated to completely block the execution of the shorts, even from direct access of the video's URL.

🙏 If you appreciate my work, a small donation on my Ko-Fi page would mean the world! 🙏

Is Youtube Shorts Blocker Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Youtube Shorts Blocker requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
