SponsorBlock is an open-source crowdsourced browser extension and open API for skipping sponsor segments in YouTube videos. Users submit when a sponsor happens from the extension, and the extension automatically skips sponsors it knows about using a privacy preserving query system. It also supports skipping other categories, such as intros, outros and reminders to subscribe, and skipping to the point with highlight.

The source code is fully open and the database can be downloaded by anyone. I want to keep this as open as possible! You can view the docs for the public API or host a mirror.

    I don’t understand what any of that have to do with it. Downloading? The number of apps doesn’t matter, as they’re all tied to the same RSS feeds. If your provider is injecting ads into your podcasts just…stop using them?

    RSS feeds + timestamps = sponsorblock.
