+### EatMyYTShorts
+## The extension to never have to deal with youtube's awful shorts player on desktop youtube.
+
+Hate it when your favorite youtubers upload a silly video and you want to scrub back to see the funny part again but cant because for some AWFUL reason youtube doesnt have a scrub feature for shorts? Trying to learn a guitar solo that a youtuber uploaded but you can't slow it down to practice? YEAH ME TOO IT ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!
+
+No more! With this extension your browser will automatically switch from youtube shorts to normal youtube so you can use all the good features to watch the short.
