Block shorts on YouTube

Hello,

Please add to the Denylist the possibility to add all the links starting by:

youtube.com/shorts/

Because no option given by YouTube to disable shorts.

Same for Facebook with Facebook.com/reals/

 

Thank you!

    NextDNS can only block domain names; not full URLs.

      Rob That is why I'm asking if this feature can be added. And it's not full URLs but URLs starting with youtube.com/shorts/.
      Thank you.

      Muhammad El-amin It can’t be added, it’s impossible to implement with a DNS service. The only thing a DNS service “sees” is the domain. The browser or app can only see the URL. 

      Maybe a http proxy would do what you want?

    If you know how to use Nginx as man in the middle, you would able to block Youtube shorts, if not check out this article to learn how: https://dealancer.medium.com/blocking-youyube-shorts-with-nginx-and-nextdns-c2ccb0ff5452
