        Blocking with uBlock really isn’t the same as disabling. Disabling implies you’re using the app and it’s a setting.

          You can disable them in Vanced and Revanced. NewPipe either disables them by default or doesn’t even support them, which is fine with me.

            None of those apps are the original and official app. Which is pretty obviously what this was about. I used to use Vanced and it never worked as easily as everyone seems to imply, and I never could get it to cast. Vanced is no longer available on the PlayStore btw, and the same can be expected for every app that tries to offer YouTube content, modified.

      I target the Shorts container row element with uBlock, so it’s removed permanently from the grid.
