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

Ya it’s 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

Add to test:

m.youtube.com##ytm-reel-shelf-renderer
m.youtube.com##.ytd-rich-shelf-renderer

into brave://adblock (custom filters)

No effect.
Shorts are still there after adding the custom filter @fanboynz

Used ublock element picker and get this

m.youtube.com##.rich-section-content

This is working @fanboynz

Sure, that works
