    Used to work just fine, but as of today while I am writing this review, It caused Youtube videos to jump around like crazy, as well as slowing down the website itself, even after disabling all my other Youtube-affecting extensions. Now I keep this one uninstalled for the foreseeable future.

    "Works, but causes scrolling to jump around when it hides things". I have the same issue. Only other extension I have installed is Adblock. If you scroll fast enough when it would normally probably have shorts it jumps you back up. Not really a big deal as it still does what you want but can be annoying if it does it right as you are about to click a video.

    Sadly this extension does not seem to remove shorts when searching Youtube. Works well for clearing up the home page though.

    Wonderful extension. Finally I can stop seeing those cringe shorts and stupid obnoxious playables. Thanks for saving my blood pressure.
