YouTube does not offer any official way to completely get rid of Shorts. The only option is to go to the first row of Shorts you see on your homepage, click the three dots in the upper right-hand corner, and hit 'See Fewer Shorts.' This will result in you not seeing as many Shorts on your homepage for a period of around 30 days on the high end, although that can fluctuate.
