However, they are and will forever be a major source of revenue for the company as well as the “content creators”. This is the reason why you will see these short clips being more aggressively pushed to your feed while others are slowly pushed into oblivion. And more often than not, we don’t have any say in that. Fortunately, that isn’t the case with YouTube as you could easily remove the Shorts section from its website. So without further ado, let’s check out how this blissful task could be carried out.

How to Bring Back the Shorts Section on YouTube
If you are ready to roll down the red carpet for Shorts, then there are quite a few approaches that you could take.

So could we change the layout of these shorts to the one that a YouTube video has? Well, turns out you could do so pretty easily, without the need for an extension. All you need to do is change the shorts keyword in the URL to watch. The only caveat is that you will have to carry out this URL tweak every time you open YouTube.

In this guide, we will show you three different methods to completely remove Shorts from YouTube. While these short video clips are a boon for content creators, the same cannot be said for the viewers. For some, Short is the sole reason why the word ‘cringe’ came into existence!

So before it gets out of control, let’s put an end to this fiasco right away. On that note, let’s make you aware of numerous methods to completely remove Shorts from YouTube.
Prerequisite: Install uBlock Extension
