Greasy Fork

works, but in Pale Moon it was nagging about not having 'layout.css.has-selector.enabled'
that is not found in about:config. i just commented out the line 'if((()=>{try{document.querySelector(":has(body)");return false;}catch{return true;}})())'

no more nagging, and it works. no more grotesque shorts on the main page.

thanks!

Pale Moon is a browser based on Firefox, but its kernel is 102.0, and Firefox did not support css’s ":has" selector in version 102.0. You can see detailed support info at https://caniuse.com/css-has.
Based on the above reasons, I suggest you change your browser, otherwise most of the features of "Hide Shorts Video" will not work.

thanks. it's my understanding that Pale Moon forked off (giggle) and is Goanna-based now. i don't need any other features as i don't have a youtube account. the thumbnails on the main page were getting on my nerves, or just grossing me out. your wonderful script fixed that for me, and that is good enough.

thanks again. :)
