2023-09-05 Nathaniel M. Foley-Beaver As stated by others, this requires a refresh to make the redirect work. This is because it tries to set window.location before the page is ready instead of using addListener() or similar mechanisms.

2023-06-16 Lenny Does not work. Just edit the link by replacing /shorts/[ID] with /watch?v=[ID].
2023-06-13 Goupille It worked great, but it seems it stopped to work in June 2023 (infinite loop, like if youtube redirects to short)
