I configured uBlock Origin to block shorts so I don’t accidentally watch that garbage. I consider it psychological self-defense.
Same. I do not need this media Format on YT.
For anybody wanting to block it via uBlock, here is the code from a previous comment:

I don´t have a problem with shorts, i can just ignore them. What i don´t like about youtube shorts is that youtube started expanding those shorts to be as a 2x2 format like seen in the picture, which takes up most of the space on my screen, unlike the original 2x1 format.
