Overview
Seamlessly play YouTube Shorts with the normal desktop interface
Why does clicking on a YouTube Short on a desktop bring up the mobile-optimized interface? With no video scrubbing, harder to access comments, less accessible view count, and more, it makes no sense to use on a desktop. Shorts Deflector is an extension that allows you to seamlessly watch YouTube Shorts with the normal desktop interface. By using several techniques, this extension is super fast; you will barely notice the switch to the desktop viewer. Install now and try it out for yourself! Upon install, the "Read your browsing history" permission may seem alarming, but this permission is only used to detect page updates.

There are a whole load of extensions who claim to stop shorts from doing the infinite scroll thing. Many do nothing, some just block access to shorts entirely. This one does actually do exactly what it says it does and puts all shorts as regular videos so you can avoid "just 1 more short" burning hours.

In my opinion, this is simply, irrefutably, the greatest extension on the entire Chrome web store. After I downloaded it, I instantly dropped Youtube Shorts as my shameful addiction. I started leaving the house again, finished my degree, met my now wife and had kids. I opened a business and now make 6 figures annually, and I have this extension to acknowledge for all of my success. I highly recommend this to anyone.
