- Rated 1 out of 5by NoonyaBeeznus, a year agoWorks well on YouTube, but breaks videos on other sites - in this case specifically Teachable courses. I'm not sure if it is something about the video player used (hotmart), but it blocks the player from loading in properly and returns a "Something went wrong" text in place of the video.
Issue was solved through Refreshing in Troubleshoot mode, as using regular Troubleshoot mode, uninstalling the add-on, and deleting browser preference data didn't work either.Developer response
posted a year agoThe SponsorBlock extension does not have access to any pages except for YouTube. It cannot possibly modify those pages. Another extension must be causing this. - Rated 5 out of 5by KawasakiDragonno, a year ago

posted a year agoHi, there was a server issue today. It's better now, but I'm still working on getting it back to full operation- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15275508, a year agoIt blocks those ads that are part of the video itself, a great addition to uBlock Origin.
It also skips other non-content in videos, like interaction reminders, intros, outros, non-music sections in music videos, etc.
It still works on many smaller channels, even with fresh uploads.
It's easy to submit your own timestamps when a video is not supported. - Rated 5 out of 5by MoxiKid, a year ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17141016, a year agoMaybe it's just me but if for some reason when you place your cursor on a sponsored part of a video, or if it is directly at the beginning sometimes the button to skip it won't appear. it does work and shows where the segment ends, but doesn't offer to skip.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Haze, a year agoEither I'm stupid or is missing the point. Or both. Same every 1 min youtube commercials destroying any type of previous youtube experience. I thought this add-on would remove just that??

posted a year agoYou are missing the point. SponsorBlock is not a traditional ad blocker but for skipping times inside of YouTube videos when the creator themselves promotes a product. It does not skip ads by YouTube. It is meant to be used alongside uBlock Origin - Rated 5 out of 5by Owl, a year ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Valpie, a year agothe extension works well but rarely instead of skipping it goes to the start of the video. i like to use it to watch youtube in pop out when im playing games and not having to skip stuff manually. only "Auto Skip" can be used when im playing games and sometimes "Filler" runs on too long but i dont want to skip it. i think something like "Auto 1.5x/2x Speed" would be nice
