Works well, no shorts are displayed on home page. Unfortunately, it also bugs out search results. When using search bar, it will reload a couple of times, and then not display relevant search results.

Works great. The subscription feed has some left over short wrapper elements, but it does not show the short videos it self.

Really Good! but there is a bug, when you search something on youtube, it will reload the results many times, this is annoying.
