Came here to say that exact same thing! Shorts are the bane of my existence, whenever I open my real Youtube App instead of Revanced (still need it to Cast to my Chromecast sometimes), there’s a solid 50/50 chance that I get sucked in by shorts and scroll them for hours. It’s ridiculous, they aren’t even interesting most of the time and I learn nothing from it, but it just keeps happening :/
Everyone should have at least Lucky Patcher installed anyways 👍
