Summary
YouTube Shorts is a new(ish) feature that is annoying, especially on desktop. You get taken to a Tiktok-like page with no video controls and endless looping videos. This extension bypasses that by redirecting all YouTube Shorts pages to the actual video page.
Safety
Risk impact
YouTube Shorts Disabler requires some risky permissions and may not be safe to use. Exercise caution when installing this add-on. Review carefully before installing.
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypass your security settings, and access your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Risk likelihood
YouTube Shorts Disabler is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on, especially ones with higher risk impact and/or higher risk likelihood.
