Youtube search page has so many shorts before the actual videos... - programming.dev

I absolutely despise Shorts. Partly for the inane TikTok apeing content, partly because of vertical video and primarily because I make 45-60 second videos for clients and they want them on YouTube - where they become Shorts, no matter what I do (other than add enough empty video at the end to take them past 61 seconds). It’s infuriating.
Revanced lets you hide shorts.
Newpipe doesn’t even know shorts exist.
