YouTube updated the UI and the script no longer works at least on short videos also the options menu icon is missing too.

Solution for short videos issue was suggested by [Anong0u0](https://greasyfork.org/users/436980-anong0u0) [here](https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/441709-youtube-anti-shorts/discussions/169130#comment-366347):
change the line 787:
From `const v_id = e.target.firstElementChild?.href?.match(/(?<=v=)[a-zA-Z0-9_-]*/)?.[0];`
To `const v_id = e.target.firstElementChild?.href?.match(/((?<=v=)|(?<=\/shorts\/))[a-zA-Z0-9_-]*/)?.[0];`
change the line 1123:
From `const v_id = thumb.href?.match(/(?<=v=)[a-zA-Z0-9_-]*/)?.[0];`
To `const v_id = thumb.href?.match(/((?<=v=)|(?<=\/shorts\/))[a-zA-Z0-9_-]*/)?.[0];`

The issue with missing options menu icon is still present.
