FocusTube: A Chrome extension that hides YouTube Shorts

Add this to your uBlock Origin Lite filter list.

I haven't seen a short since :)

How to do it: Click on uBlock Origin Lite extension -> Settings (cog icon) -> Filter lists -> Custom filters -> Import / Export (bottom of page) -> Paste in the list

Speaking of which, what the fuck is wrong with product managers at big tech these days?

When I try to express:

> I don't want to see ANY shorts

instead, I get:

> show me fewer youtube shorts

when I want to say:

> NO

I'm only allowed to say:

> mAyBe LaTeR

Do the people behind these design decisions not realise they're monsters by gagging their users into only being able to express notions that appease them?

And YouTube doesn't really provide the option of showing less shorts. Try it. See if it really shows you less shorts there months later. Spoiler: it won't.
