I have a redirector rule that redirects youtube.com/shorts/whatever with youtube.com/watch?v=whatever, so it uses the good player when I open a short.

details here

Example URL: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/abcdefghijk
Include pattern: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/*
Redirect to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=$1
Pattern type: Wildcard

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

www.piped.video/shorts/abcdefghijk

www.piped.video/shorts/

www.piped.video/watch?v=$1

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
