Redirect Shorts
Description from store

This extension replaces the "/shorts/" from the url with "watch?v=" to play your shorts video on the normal player which is more user friendly on a computer.

Doesn't work. Try clicking on the google doodle today, it tries to open a short and just triggers an infinite rendering loop. Please fix this buggy trash

Works like it says, but for some reason it prevents me from going back to any previous pages, and greys out the back button until I completely close and reopen the tab Other wise works great! I'm using Opera GX

Thank you, I was tired of having to manually replace /short/ with /video/ on the url

Yay, thanks. I guess YouTube would rather be evil than be useful.

Extension works great, it would have been perfect if the redirected url replaced the short url entry in history. Right now if you press the back button after redirection it will take you back to the shorts url instead of the previous url, which in turn will redirect you again to the non-shorts url.

5 stars. Absolute cringe that we actually have to install something like this to get a fully functioning video player where you can actually control your volume and jump to a different time in the video.

Doesn't work at all. Could be because I'm using Brave instead of Chrome, so something to make it compatible with it would be nice.
