  • (2024-02-28) Oleksandr Pylypchak: Hi, good functionality and settings. Can it somehow rearrange the page to avoid placeholders and black spaces? Upd 28.02.2024 Placeholders (empty spaces) back again. Please fix.
  • (2024-02-05) Tiger Cao: Great. The animations are great, works perfectly.
  • (2024-01-29) Tanks in Space: It works great on pc, lots of settings and it's free :-) Got mine set up to remove shorts and those useless premiere announcements from my subscription feed but still have the shorts visible on the channel's page. Thanks
  • (2024-01-27) Ameya Kolhatkar: Works perfectly! Thanks a lot!
  • (2024-01-17) Capivara com notebook: Adorei.
  • (2024-01-16) London S: Helps me stay focused thank you guys
  • (2023-12-09) Steve L: Does NOT work. Everything is enabled and the stupid shorts still appear.
  • (2023-12-02) S P: Been using this for a year now. Still working great! I just wish it would also hide finished livestreams, but this extension already does plenty enough 👍
  • (2023-11-25) TXx DEV: i wasa happy but also make it for youtube mobile app
  • (2023-11-24) Natalie Aurora: It WAS great at first, I even paid for the added features that kept being added. Then it stopped letting me change me settings, everything setting was stuck on and even changing which settings tab I was on would reset all settings. And then one day I did a routine cleaning of my cookies and it bricked everything. Does not work at all, in the slightest.. Tried everything I could think of, even removed and re-added it, nothing. If it starts working again I'll change this review, but as of now just doesn't function.
  • (2023-11-14) Daan: Why do you want all my data on all my websites? Stick to youtube.com please
  • (2023-11-14) Timo Benkhard: No more stupid tiktok style videos on youtube!
  • (2023-11-09) Sadettin Turgut: plase Please make a mobile version of this please
  • (2023-11-07) Uhl: Works as advertised and is much needed. I pay for YouTube Premium to hide ads and this extension hides all shorts, making YouTube a much less distracting place. If only there were an equivalent for the YouTube mobile app!?
  • (2023-11-07) Muaz Osman: amazing
  • (2023-11-05) Faux Cuss: 5 stars so far, does exactly what it says.
  • (2023-10-31) Doctor Doom: Only works for the homepage. Doesn't work on the search page, so you will still see shorts whenever you search for a specific keyword
  • (2023-10-27) Gerry Blue: Works like a charm, I use youtube while I work so spend a lot of time in there, I pay the Premium, I should have the option to disable stupid TikTube videos, with this extension now I can
  • (2023-10-26) RoseBlackBones: Seems the pay walls have been removed yay, very helpful plugin. hate how cluttered my sub box was with all the pointless shorts, this plugin is perfect.
  • (2023-10-24) Alexandra Mejia: Definitely works as intended, but with YouTube doing the whole "3 chances to remove your ad blocker or you can't watch anything", its not worth keeping the extension added. Hopefully an update can come out where YT can't recognize I have it on so I can re-add this extension
  • (2023-10-24) Peter J: Works as I'd hoped it would! Thanks
  • (2023-10-24) Omer Gazit: Working really good!
  • (2023-10-23) Jan Zaharov: It's not work .
  • (2023-10-22) Björn Felten: Doesn't work for me. Sorry...
  • (2023-10-15) Babse Manden: Thank you so much! Works like a charm. You saved my life!
  • (2023-10-11) slim Shady: Its shocking how it isnt a feature by default on youtube. Being addicted to shorts/tiktok/reels etc can be seriously damaging to your health
  • (2023-10-11) Hiteshwar Andugulapati: awesome app looking forward to see this kind of app in mobile devices too
  • (2023-10-11) Idi B: Thanks A LOT guys!
  • (2023-10-08) simon gilmour: Garbage. Doesn't do what it says.
  • (2023-10-07) Logan: 11/10 i'll never watch a short again ty
  • (2023-10-06) Tony “Fan4eG” W.: dont work. upd: works fine now. upd 2: paywall has gone. its awesome.
  • (2023-10-01) Dipper: Why does this extension has "host_permissions" as "all_urls" when this is only for YouTube?
  • (2023-10-01) Jared Chapman: It is working great. I am not sure where the paywall is being seen.
  • (2023-09-30) Huang Guan: works greate thanks developer create this amazing extension for all of youtuber
  • (2023-09-30) Kayou Cat: really usefull for blocking shorts
  • (2023-09-29) Khaled: Thanks, working perfectly.
  • (2023-09-27) Jarek Hartman: Quite cool one. But you can do exactly the same with any AdBlocker - just select the Shorts frame.
  • (2023-09-21) Mary Paddock: IT worked really well until about three or four days ago. Nothing's changed on my end.
  • (2023-09-20) Omer and Anat Gazit: Working amazingly good!
  • (2023-09-20) Deepanshu Rao: works well
  • (2023-09-19) Aqua Vlogs!: This extension works pretty well for me, so I see no problems.
  • (2023-09-19) Scuffed Badger: The fact that the standard, useful features where put behind a paywall makes this extension not worth having.
  • (2023-09-12) Kate: eta: Features which were standard (removing shorts from search) now only a premium feature, making this a functionally useless extension for me. Uninstalled. Actually removed them, not just changing them to reg videos. Even removed them from search results, which is where they have been driving me crazy. Creators I blocked using another extension started appearing again under shorts.

  • (2023-07-31, v:1.6.15.2) Kyle McCaffrey: Subscription Feed Issue
    I seem to have the newest version of the youtube UI, and, currently, the addon hides every section of my subscriptions until it finally hits the 2 years ago section, which renders normally. Ends up with a bunch of hr elements condensed together into a gray rectangle then the 2 yrs ago videos.
  • (2023-07-15, v:1.6.15.1) Guillaume Hardy: Customize grid size
    Hey, Do you think you could add an option to customize the grid size on the home/sub page ? Youtube keeps pushing updates that make it look like an app for toodlers (last week I could get 5 videos in a row at 100% zoom, which is not the case anymore), I think this could be a nice touch to this already great extension. Thank you for the great work, keep it up
  • (2023-07-07, v:1.6.15.1) Tim Evans: Stopped working today.
    Not sure if it is just me, but shorts are showing up in my subscription feed and main page today Jul/6/23
  • (2023-07-01, v:1.6.15.1) Sus: Breaks entire subscription feed
    Doesn't work at all. In fact it removes every video from the entire subscription feed. The few times I can get it to work - it removes any video that's not from 'today' and squishes the entire feed over to the left by 2 rows. Even then it only "works" after I already went through and manually removed all the shorts using Youtube's hide feature. Which sort of defeats the entire purpose. Was working perfectly fine, doing exactly what it was supposed to. Then all of a sudden it asked for extra permissions and stopped working once they were granted. Pretty sketchy honestly.
  • (2023-06-29, v:1.6.15.1) Sahm Ghi: I updated the extension but shorts not hidden anymore
    I updated the extension version 1.6.15.1 but shorts not hidden anymore
  • (2023-06-29, v:1.6.15.1) Mikael Santanos: New update is good. Haters are not very bright!
    New update is amazing. Haters are not very bright! I just wanted to show some support and say thank you! It's a shame people don't understand the concept of how extension permissions work. It's a bigger shame that Google label their permissions for poorly lol The new update is amazing, the fact that shorts are hidden before the page renders and we no longer even see a slight glimpse of them is pure bliss. Probably the best update thus far. Keep at it dev!
  • (2023-06-28, v:1.6.15.1) Dirk: Why again those shady permission changes?
    First access to browsing history, now read all data on all websites? What the hell? Was this extension hijacked by someone malicious?
  • (2023-06-27, v:1.6.15) Kyle Menigoz: Removing all videos
    On the subscription page, the extension is removing all videos after the first row (similar to a previous error that an update fixed). I've made sure I'm on the latest version (1.6.15), tried force reloading, and reinstalling the extension.

  • (2023-06-26, v:1.6.15) Nick: 1.6.15
    1.6.15 again asks permission to access history. Why?
  • (2023-06-26, v:1.6.15) Bradford Freeman: Permissions for all websites
    I saw in a review you undid changes for permissions but the extension is still asking for permissions on all websites when I install it
  • (2023-06-19, v:1.6.14) Mikael Santanos: Hide Movies?
    Would it be possible to hide movie recommendations from certain areas of the site? I see them frequently in the recommended list and sometimes under videos too. Thanks if possible
  • (2023-06-19, v:1.6.14) Christoffer Kilsand: Extension not working AGAIN
    Extension is back to not hiding shorts after just a week or so. I'm not sure if the issue is on development side or if youtube is is making it harder to block shorts, but the recent controversial decision to require browsing data (and saying "it makes a better user experience" is a very vague and evasive explanation for it) makes me think it's the extension that's broken.
  • (2023-06-18, v:1.6.13) Dean French: Permissions
    Why is this extension now asking for access to my browsing history?
  • (2023-06-08, v:1.6.6) David Hill: Not blocking shorts for me anymore
    Not blocking shorts for me anymore. Looks like YouTube made another change to how it labels shorts and it seems to have changed the scale of my grid view so maybe that is messing with the extension?
  • (2023-06-08, v:1.6.4) Poppy TheDogOfWonders: Whenever an update or notification comes through the extension it forces all youtube tabs to reload.
    As the title says. I noticed whenever the '1' notification icon appeared on the extension all my youtube tabs would reload all at once. Fix this. This is such a bad issue that I am not using the add on until it is fixed. Also, your notifications need work too. I got the same exact notification several times. I've already read that you've fixed some bugs, I don't need to read the same update daily.
  • (2023-06-08, v:1.6.4) Stephen Shinn: Problem with extension and youtube tabs
    Ever since the latest updates, I have been having problems with all of my open youtube tabs just refreshing and playing all at once. It has happened more than 3x in the last 24 hours. Anyone else have this problem?
  • (2023-06-07, v:1.6.1) Zakory Clements: Bug Involving Subscriptions Page
    On one of my youtube accounts when I go to the subscriptions page it starts "minimizing" all of my subscription's pages videos [Grid Mode] in sequence of top to bottom. [today, yesterday, this week, this month, etc] This is unfortunate because it makes the extension unusable for me until fixed. Use to work fine until 6/7/2023!
  • (2023-06-06, v:1.5.0) Mini Min: Shorts showing in grid view
    It used to work wonderfully but since yesterday shorts started showing again in my subscriptions when I am in grid view. They disappear after switching to list view.
  • (2023-05-27, v:1.5.0) Karas: turbo
    what does turbo option do exactly?
  • (2023-05-20, v:1.5.0) Alex Moak: Doesn't work when scrolling
    If I'm scrolling through a channel's videos on the website, the page has a habit of moving to the Shorts tab, resetting my progress. I was hoping this extension would prevent this, but nope. I still keep getting pulled over to the unwanted shorts page.
  • (2023-05-17, v:1.4.9) Daniel Miller: Notifications Dissapearing
    For some reason when on a video page, the notification menu will go blank after a few seconds of looking at it. This doesn't happen if you aren't watching a video. For example if you are on the home page, it shows up fine.
  • (2023-05-04, v:1.4.9) drizzt94720: not blocking shorts in subscriptions feed
    not blocking shorts in subscriptions feed
  • (2023-04-12, v:1.4.7) Oren Melzer: Not working now?
    As of now, Shorts are shown in the subscriptions tab. I have double-checked that the setting to hide them there is enabled.
  • (2023-03-24, v:1.4.7) Alexander S.: new feature
    make it possible to hide streams too please.
  • (2023-03-24, v:1.4.7) spam behi: Notifications gutted even when disabled
    All notifications get removed, regardless of whether they're for shorts or not and regardless of whether the "notification menu" is enabled or disabled under misc
  • (2023-03-16, v:1.4.7) Вадим Нечунаев: Hide livestreams
    Live streams create the same kind of clutter (and just annoy me) in my subscription feed as shorts. The same for many other people. There doesn't seem to be any way to hide them. So it would be great if you added this function to this extension (and i guess changed the name of it) or made another for that purpose. Though it should be separate from premieres.
  • (2023-02-27, v:1.4.7) Luke B: sub button missing in side panel
    hello there, great work with the extension, its amazing One issue I have is the subscriptions button is gone from the side bar - i still want to see my sub's latest uploads of their regular videos. can this be fixed? Thanks so much :)
  • (2023-02-16, v:1.4.4) Bainion Romello: Settings Reset
    Hi, The settings (themes and what was (un)checked) are reset each time the extension is updated. Would there be a way to save them to avoid having to setup the thing each time? Also will you do a Firefox version?
  • (2023-02-14, v:1.3.6) Вадим Нечунаев: Shorts still appear in subscriptions feed.
    Since some days ago the hiding of shorts in the subscription feed stopped working even though the option is enabled. I tried turning it off and on to no effect.
  • (2023-02-12, v:1.3.0) Vladislav Shumkin: // Check for shorts videos and tabs every 100 milliseconds
    function hideShorts() causes high CPU usage on a perfectly stale page. Check with performance tab Chrome Dev tools (6 seconds of total JS usage from 10 second performance trace) Probably you should make it reactive some other way than doing heavy CPU stuff so frequently. For the time being I can't use this useful extension as it eats one CPU core all the time while Youtube is open as a page.
  • (2023-02-08, v:1.2.2) Dominik: Subscription list view
    On grid view there are only long videos, but on list view of subscription I can see line for shorts with yt channel name
