Agreed, and the fact that, when I click the X on the shorts bar thing it says "The shorts will be removed for 30 days" like no you assholes, I want it GONE. I don't want to just have to do this again in a month.
Just used desktop to hide those awful shorts for 30 blessed days!
that said, i'm surprised that it's available on the desktop version. i wonder if it's some sort of malicious compliance?
