this chrome extension blocks youtube shorts, to regain time wasted on them instead of studying/coding. It is also my intro to chrome web extensions.
No AI was used to write actual code, only to gain information.
I have added a way to enable/disable the blocker in the extensions window

I have implemented the blocker for youtube shorts, instagram reels and tiktok. It definitly works best on youtube, tiktok just shows a black page, and instagram works, but when you look up an account, the normal posts don’t get a new place, so you just get a grid with here and there a post.
It both blocks all buttons to reels/shorts, and it automatically reroutes reel and shorts links to the homepage.
