Shortless YouTube

Remove all traces of YouTube Shorts from the YouTube website.

Shortless YouTube removes all traces of YouTube Shorts from the YouTube website, giving you the classic long-form video experience. What it does: - Hides Shorts shelves and sections from the homepage and subscription feed - Removes the Shorts tab from the left sidebar navigation - Filters Shorts out of search results and channel pages - Automatically redirects any /shorts/ URL to the standard video player (/watch?v=) - Removes Shorts suggestions from video recommendations How it works: The extension runs entirely in your browser with zero external connections. It uses lightweight CSS rules to hide Shorts UI elements and declarative redirect rules to convert Shorts links into regular video pages. No data is collected, no analytics are sent, and no accounts are needed. Why install it: If you use YouTube for long-form content — tutorials, podcasts, essays, music, documentaries — Shorts can clutter your feed and pull you into an endless scroll loop. Shortless YouTube gives you back a clean, focused browsing experience without removing any other YouTube functionality. Works automatically after installation. No configuration required.
