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.'
I found an unexpected bug when creating a segment: the video I was watching had just been released as a "Premier", so the timeline of the video lengthens as the video is played. If you try to create a segment before the Premier is finished, the time on the segment will be wrong. The preview looks correct, but the submitted segment is not the same as the preview. If this happens, the only way to delete the segment is to select the segment you made from the SponsorBlock area by clicking the "Open SponsorBlock Popup" and click the 'thumbs down' icon.
A dream come true. Fascinating extension!
Works perfectly, can block all you could ever want
This is a great extension and everybody should have. It will save you so much time by skipping those boring YouTube sponsor segments, interaction reminders and press the bell icon bs.
здорово экономит время, хотя я его трачу на создание пропусков
best.
Amazing, saved me over 11 hours so far, and feels like an extension of an adblocker. However, recently I have noticed sometimes upon first loading a video the extension does not load segments but this is always solvable by reloading (This has been on Opera GX).
Отличное расширение. Узнал о нём из настроек YouTube Vanced для Android. Просто в какой-то момент задумался "а могу ли я точно так же пропускать бессмысленные для меня сегменты видеоролика на ПК, как это сейчас работает на моём телефоне". Загуглил и вуаааля! Теперь это расширение вошло в тройку избранных для Chrome. Также рекомендую расширения Ublock Origin (блокирует всю рекламу на сайтах, в том числе и на YouTube) и Return YouTube Dislike (возвращает дизлайки на видео в YouTube).
this extension has many features and works perfectly! i love that u can customize time for the skip notice, etc.
Absolutely wonderful!
