SponsorBlock is a crowdsourced browser extension to skip sponsor segments in YouTube videos.
Sponsorblock lets users mark YT video segments as sponsored, and will automatically skip those segments during playback.
Using it for almost 5 years now. Can't imagine using YT without it
This looks very interesting. I looked at the "add-ons" page for Firefox and noticed under permissions it said "Access your data for all websites". Why would it need to access all websites? Why not just when you access YouTube?
Might just be how the plugin API in Firefox works. I haven't looked, but maybe plugins don't specify that they access a specific site, just that they need site access.
It could be so that it works for embedded videos on other websites
This add-on may also ask to: Access your data for all websites
Sponsor Block works on front ends like Invidious.
Used this for a while and it worked well. Now I more often use the libredirect extension to access YouTube through a frontend. I also will stream videos to vlc, or download with tartube to watch offline. Lots of options for us!
there are almost no frontends left working. i had to chase them to see what worked. LibRedirect has no way to flag when some don't, thus removing those?
One of my three extensions I use on my main profile It even works with Invidious! Ublock origin, NoScript and SponsorBlock in case you're wondering.
my second favorite extension after ublock origin!
