Show HN: SponsorBlock – Skip YouTube Sponsorships, Intros, Outros and More

from the show-hn dept.

I recently released an update adding skip categories, a long wanted feature. My blog post about these changes: https://blog.ajay.app/categories-sponsorblock

No! Stop!

I've been using SponsorBlock since the last time you posted about it! It's amazing! It works for damn near any YouTube video I wanna watch, it works without any intervention, and it lets me skip past the annoying RAID: SHADOW LEGENDS advertisements.

If you keep posting about this it'll very quickly become popular, and eventually YouTube will obfuscate their code to prevent this extension from working.

I'm surprised SponsorBlock didn't blow up on here again. In all seriousness, it's a terrific add-on.
