#2Finally, tired of creating this custom filter in all my devices lol. I wish it would all automatically apply the "videos" filter as well.

#3I prefer using RYS https://lawrencehook.com/rys/> which has this as a feature, but a lot more, too.

#4Legit question, do you guys get really bad Shorts recommendations? Mine aren't half bad (really more of the same as with regular videos) plus creators don't insert ad spots. I get it, TikTok-style scrolling is annoying, but the format has its merits. At least less yapping and more to the point.

It's 99% the interface, cluttered with useless garbage over the video, that I hate.
I hate it so much that I couldn't even see the content hiding behind it, and don't really know what the recommendation is like.

#6Just pause watch history and it will disable shorts recommendation. The only shorts you will see will be from your subscribed channels.

Mine are usually pretty bad. If I ever do see one that I like I catch myself flicking through way too many of them afterwards and I hate that. So I prefer to hide them entirely.
I use YouTube Tweaks which has a lot of different customisation options. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/youtube-tweak...

I've always had watch history off, but my searches now return a couple of pages of short form nonsense, before my actual results.

YouTube search is just broken. Has been for a long long long time. You get 3-4 relevant results and then it just shows you random unrelated crap.

#10Unhook[1] has been my go-to for this. Gives full customization over shorts, recommendations, comments, etc.
