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.
付费分析未识别到付费功能
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.'
le problème c'est que youtube l'a detecté et m'a menacé de bloqué le lecteur vidéo au bout de 3 utilisations.
En youtube no bloquea nada

Excellent
Perfect
Simply amazing. Makes YT much more watchable. The only improvements I can think of are to have the option for auto-skip to activate anytime during the segment (I tend to skip around my videos using the arrow keys) because it only activates at the beginning of the segment and for the manual-skip ability to be available throughout the segment (not just in the time after the notice fades). I think that if it worked like Preview/Intermission segments, it would be just a touch more convenient. I just wish the skip functions didn't need to activate at the start of the segments, rather have skips be able to be activated through the entirety of the segments similar to the ones in aniwave.to (9anime) except for auto-skip which would just skip the segment entirely wherever I click (unless I purposely want to watch the segment, however unlikely). That being said, not much to really complain about. Works like a charm. Even without those improvements, I can't go back to watching YT without SponsorBlock.
Generally this is a 10/10 extension for me, however with the newest YouTube update it's stopped working properly. I'm simply reviewing as a means of asking for the team to please update the extension as soon as they can, and otherwise to advocate for this fantastic tool for YouTube
Polecam
nothing. what is this ??
I can't use youtube without it now. This is such a nice quality extension for youtube.
