AI 产品解读Automatically skips sponsored segments, intros, outros, subscription reminders, and other non-content segments on YouTube videos using crowdsourced timestamp data
YouTube videos contain embedded sponsor reads, self-promotion, intros, outros, and subscription reminders that waste viewers' time. SponsorBlock crowdsources segment timestamps so all users automatically skip these interruptions.
Install extension → it auto-generates an anonymous userID → extension automatically fetches known segments for any YouTube video from sponsor.ajay.app server → skips segments in real-time during playback. Users can optionally submit new segments by marking start/end times, and vote on existing segments.

- 目标用户
- YouTube viewers who want to skip sponsor reads and non-content segments / Community contributors who submit and vote on segment timestamps / Users who watch music videos and want to skip non-music sections
- Source JS files are minified/bundled, making exact line-by-line analysis harder, but key functions (generateUserID, onInstall handler) are clearly identifiable.
- The 'subscription' keyword false positive from the heuristic is clearly about YouTube 'subscription begging' segment categories, not paid subscriptions, confirmed by the store description and locale strings.

The extension is fully open source (MIT license per LICENSE.txt files). There are no premium tiers, no payment processing, no Stripe/billing integration, no feature gating. The keyword hits for 'subscription' refer to YouTube 'subscription begging' segments (i.e., creators asking viewers to subscribe), not paid subscriptions. The 'pro' hits are incidental substrings in translated locale strings. The 'upgrade' hit in Persian locale refers to 'The notice has been upgraded!' (noticeUpdate), a UI notice change, not a paid upgrade. There is a voluntary donation link (sponsor.ajay.app/donate) in the help page, but this does not gate any features.

- The extension auto-generates a random anonymous userID on first install (generateUserID() in background.js). This is NOT a login—there is no password, no account creation, no authentication UI, and no server-side account. The userID is purely an anonymous identifier for submitting/voting on segments. The core workflow (auto-skipping sponsors on YouTube) works immediately after installation without any user authentication. The store description confirms: 'When you install the extension, it will generate a random userID that is used when submitting or voting.'
It WAS a good app and worked correctly, now it will slow your YouTube tab to the point of breaking the entire video and tab itself. Clearly not enough maintenance and until a good update, DO NOT DOWNLOAD.
It's 5 stars for now. I got used to those options in YT Vanced. The problem is, it works, than doesn't. It worked on a couple of videos, than it stopped. Not skipping anything, no colors on a search bar. I tried with the same video that I watched, choosing it from watching history, to be sure that it's not some copy of that video. I restarted browser, still nothing. Maybe it works out. I don't know. Same thing happened to me with Vanced for a couple of times. Lost functionality for a day, then it came back in morning.
Doesn't work. Can not communicate with the block list server. Only returns an error
It randomly opens a new tab to a facebook post by Google Chrome
Лучшее расширение.
pls figure out the 502 error thing cause this extension is really helpful for skipping sponsored segments in podcast videos
cool extensions mate, hope it works long
I give up The servers go down at least 3 times a week for several hours. I'm sick of this. what's the point in supporting a service that's offline every time i go to use YouTube. This used to be a good service. I couldn't stand YouTube with all the ads and sponsors, and adblock and Sponsorblock made YouTube more useable. But not now. I'm done with this extension and i'm done with YouTube. I gave you 2 months to fix this bs and you didn't.
정말 아주 좋긴 한데 서버 상태가 자주 맛탱이간다는게 아쉽네요.
If you want to submit a segment, don't expect it to go through as there's been continuous server outages since October. I'd still recommend it if you're just here to skip sponsors.
