    You get the same and more with adblock and sponsorblock. Ok maybe I’ve not covered shorts but I imagine that’s not hard to fix with a browser plugin too.

      Ublock can hide shorts and the trending sections with a few select filters

      Edit: Here’s the list of filters I have for Youtube. I forget where I found these, but they clean it up quite a bit.

        TIL. Definitely need to give this a go. I don’t care if it’s a creator I might otherwise be interested in, I am not interested in Shorts. And I really do not care what other people are watching.

      perhaps, but you also get the occassional “Sign in to confirm that you’re not a robot” prompt if you’re not logged in.
