Shorts are weird. They don’t respond to keyboard controls like K for play/pause, arrow keys to scrub and change volume, you can’t actually scrub at all. I’m pretty sure you can’t see what channel posted them or when? Play them in the regular window and voila, normals ass YouTube video. Just short.
Youtube’s default player will now resize the viewport depending on the aspect ratio of the content, so I suspect it would do the same for vertical video
Clean urls breaks a lot of things so I don’t use it anymore. You can delete trackers if need be by yourself (usually everything after “ref” or everything after “?”
I would also like to add:
Ublock Origin with Javascript enable by default in settings
Container Tabs
Tree Style tabs
Bitwarden
Simplelogin
Privacy Badger
Dark Background and Light Text
Tampermonkey (use to redirect to old reddit to view without JS using ublock)
Here’s a list of those I have installed:
Oh my god there’s an add-on to block Youtube shorts?!?
Description says it plays then in the normal video screen. Don’t see the point, maybe someone can fill me in.

It also includes options for blocking shorts.
The shorts are usually in vertical and narrow for a phone so I suspect it changes that?

But most of these are not must haves. Like, SteamDB?
“a list of those i have installed” is probably not must have for you indeed 😅
Thanks for the list, and links. That was very helpful, and super easy.

firefox has a built in function to “copy link without site tracking” now.
firefox also has total cookie protection which may (more may not) make Container Tabs kinda moot ?
