Not much to say except it does work. The developers seem to actually take a look at feedback and that's nice. Recommend to anyone who get distracted easily and can't focus on essential content.

Thank you. It’s easy and effective in removing Shorts

Should have trusted that other review. Have ensure both BlockYT options are enabled and yet not a single short is blocked. Very disappointing - I feel scammed. EDIT- I don’t have an X (twitter) and won’t be making one just for this. Do you have an email?

Developer wrote me to explain this is to block unwanted suggestions so I’m going to try to use it in addition to “sunscreen app” which allows me to have to password entry each video request from the kids.

Der Kauf war jeden Cent wert. Die Erweiterung hilft vor ungewollten längeren Aufenthalten auf der Plattform, indem die Shorts und Empfehlungen ausgeschaltet werden können. Wenn man sich, wie ich, gerne mal von den Kommentaren in den Bann ziehen lässt, kann man diese ebenfalls deaktivieren. Während 1 Monat Erfahrung funktionierte die Anwendung einwandfrei ohne irgendwelche Bugs.

This app succeeded in blocking out the YT shorts for me however, there was also an option in the app that would block out the comments sections of videos for me and that’s where the problem is. Comment sections are as equal of a problem as shorts are. The app is unable to block the comment sections out despite checking if everything is in place and refreshing the pages over and over again. Please fix the comment section problem for me.

Не работает в Safari. Хотел, чтобы исчезли Shorts из истории поиска, но этого не произошло. Так же не исчезли видео с домашней страницы.

Google likely modified the YouTube website so now it blocks all videos on the main feed from showing. You can see videos under subscriptions, but shorts show up so it’s not doing anything there. If you click the shorts tab at the bottom shorts play, but that’s not really a downside. The problem is it doesn’t do anything to block shorts. The best I can tell it only blocks the home feed completely but nothing else changes.
