uBlock - copy the template in the link below, add it to "My Filters" to completely remove Shorts from YouTube:

OMG thank you. I fucking hate shorts.

Oh man I needed this! Not the stupid extensions that play it in a normal YouTube window or something. I just wanna remove that crappy short form video stuff altogether.

The UI for shorts is terrible. You can't double click to fast forward, as that likes the video. Why are they inconsistent with their own player?
