Removes YouTube Shorts from home feed, sidebar navigation, search results, and subscriptions with distraction-free blocking. # No Shorts. Just YouTube. YouTube is an incredible tool for learning, researching, creating, and getting things done. But then there are Shorts. You open YouTube to watch one tutorial. You see a Short. “Just five minutes.” And suddenly, an hour is gone. ShortsGone removes YouTube Shorts at the source — so you don't have to rely on willpower every time you open YouTube. Why block Shorts completely? The problem isn't always that you choose to watch Shorts. It's that they're constantly placed in front of you. Shorts can appear in your YouTube feed, recommendations, search results, and other parts of the platform. When you're already looking for something else, that tiny bit of temptation can be enough to start a scrolling session. Short-form video is specifically designed to keep your attention moving from one video to the next. So instead of trying to resist the temptation, ShortsGone removes the temptation. 🧠 Tackle the problem at the root Other blockers can work — until you find a way around them. Maybe you can disable the blocker. Maybe you can open an incognito window. Maybe you tell yourself you'll only watch one. I've done it too. The problem with relying entirely on willpower is that the distraction is still there. ShortsGone takes a different approach: Don't see Shorts → Don't get tempted → Don't start scrolling. What ShortsGone does ✓ Blocks YouTube Shorts ✓ Removes Shorts from your YouTube experience ✓ Hides Shorts from feeds and recommendations ✓ Prevents Shorts from becoming the next video rabbit hole ✓ Lets you keep using normal YouTube You can still watch the long-form videos you came to YouTube for — tutorials, lectures, reviews, documentaries, music, programming content, and everything else. Just without Shorts constantly competing for your attention. YouTube for what you actually came for. You don't need to quit YouTube. You don't need to block the entire website. You don't need another complicated productivity system. Just remove the part that keeps pulling you into endless scrolling. Install ShortsGone and make YouTube a place you go to watch what you intended to watch — not whatever the algorithm puts in front of you.
