The sheer number of videos taken “the wrong way round” (for my computer’s monitor) is mind-boggling. I get that some people watch videos on their phones, but is it really that many?

          I don’t think that would work. PiHole works on a DNS level and has no insight to the encrypted connection to Youtube. So it cannot see or modify the site content on the fly. uBlock Origin basically can (beside DNS based blocking) modify the websites’ code after it has loaded into your browser.

        Doesn’t seem to work. Do I need to restart? I still see #shorts videos in my sub feed.

        I’m using uBlock Origin.

        Seems quite extensive, but… do I place some and/or all of it on the “My rules” or “My filters” tab on uBlock?

      “Enhacer for YouTube” (a Firefox extension, and maybe Chromium too) hides shorts for good.
