@GIT ,
Can you please, in Brave, got to Settings --> Brave Shields & Privacy --> Content Filters
and toggle the YouTube Anti-Shorts
option βOnβ and check to see if this resolves the issue?

Ya itβs already on @fanboynz @Mattches
Issue not resolved
Yeah I can reproduce, Need a way to get around it. Block or hiding the Shorts will lockup the page from loading further. So any of those custom Short filters on the internet will break also.
tldr; youtube countered people blocking shorts
