Crowdsourcing when built-in ads (also intros, previews, endcards, self-promotion, and more) are in a video and automatically skipping them? It's perfect

the best adblocker as far as i'm aware (if there's a better one pls comment and let me know). if you read my last post about diy youtube you know that I take great pains to avoid seeing ads, but this one takes such little effort. everyone should have an adblocker. it's such a no brainer to me but sometimes i watch my friends on their computers and they don't have it. it makes me so confused. you're telling me you watch 5 minutes of ads before watching one dumb ass video?

if you're trying to get off Youtube (but still find value in people's work) this is for you... basically you get to decide exactly what sections of the site to hide/remove (i disabled autoplay, home page, recommendations and shorts -- anything algorithmically generated)! plus it makes you pay attention to WHO exactly you're subscribed to and what you want to cultivate in your media diet

literally don't know how I managed using youtube on mobile before this - not having ads and being able to lock my screen is already huge but auto-skipping sponsor spots is insane

A master at writing genre fiction as literary fiction. Multiple narratives, stellar characters, a time-hopping, pre- and post-apocalyptic plot, and a killer miniseries adaptation to watch once you’re finished

I only saw her perform twice, but I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone else live more than once (though I obviously would like to see a lot of them live again). At least I can say one of the times I saw her was her very first US performance 🥹💔
