发布于 1 年前I understand your concern and have made the requested changes.
The upgrade was hastily put and the current limit is 3 not just the one. And I have already increased the limit to 50 and submitted it to the store.
A new upgrade has already been submitted but it'll take the dev team a day or two to give it the green light and roll out the new version.
Seems like people don't even want to make a one-time contribution, I will be discontinuing the support and will be not replying to threads after the next update. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Chillhoe，1 年前
- 评分 1 / 5来自 Iothil，1 年前Doesn't work anymore. Also says "Ads Blocker for Chrome", but in the title says for FireFox. So yeah, just stopped working, the only contribution now is that it massively slows down YT. I was playing with the thought of actually buying it, but as long as it keeps randomly working, hell no.
Also, seeing the dev responses... yeah, grow up. Trying to lean into every 1 star review... I am almost getting callcenter vibes. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Alex Stargazer，1 年前It worked fairly well until it suddenly stopped working. The author of the add-on claims it is not paywalled, but he must have screwed up somewhere else.

- 评分 1 / 5来自 Stay Mad，1 年前I am not gonna pay u for this extension lmao. If I'm gonna pay someone to not see ads I would rather buy the Youtube built in ad blocker: YOUTUBE PREMIUM!!!
- 评分 1 / 5来自 Jeff，1 年前Worked for one day, now does nothing.
Response to the developer - I have 19 ads showing, and yes I am on 2.0, and to repeat my initial review - it worked for one day, and now appears to do nothing at all.
I don't know anything about a "paywall mechanism."
Oh, and my firefox version is "up to date" so whatever the most recent release is.开发者回应
发布于 1 年前I am very sorry to hear that, can I know the Firefox version you're using, and whether you're over the limit (watched more than 50 ads)?
Please update the version to 2.0 and it will remove the constant paywall mechanism.
Can you uninstall and reinstall the extension? - 评分 1 / 5来自 Szymon Marczak，1 年前It does not matter whether the source code is open or not. No adblock should be behind a paywall, ever. fishspace is right.

发布于 1 年前Many solutions are, and the most famous adblocker uBlock (not Original) now AdBlock Plus is a part of "Acceptable Ads Program" and earns millions in annual revenue.
But I understand where are you coming from. The hard paywall was removed in the last update.
For maintenance and consistent updates, a one-time contribution will go a long way. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 18128068，1 年前
- 评分 1 / 5来自 fishspace，1 年前I guess the donations weren't enough.
The developer switched to a monetized model because maintenance of his open source extension was too hard? Find one of the solutions on gitHub, it's forked from the same code afaik. Unfortunately that means we stop supporting this bait n switch.开发者回应
发布于 1 年前Please read the announcement if you're interested to know why there was a need to turn to an open-core model.
Also, you're correct, that open-source project still works for the majority. Not for everyone as YouTube is testing geo-fenced patches. Soon, that version will stop working.
You're free to modify the source to make it work but no further updates will be pushed.
The upcoming 2.0 after listening to the customers will be an opt-in model (not a paywall). - 评分 1 / 5来自 Jota，1 年前
- 评分 1 / 5来自 fishnet，1 年前Looking into the reviews page for what happened to this addon? It is not longer free --
Worry not though, just downgrade it to v1.3 or don't update to v1.6.
If anything, people already forked the github repo, or better: look for alternatives.
Also dev: if you want money, consider having a donation page, not a paywall. Nobody cares how much you work on it. If it's free then it's not, don't be bothered by people's response :)
But eh, do whatever you will.开发者回应
发布于 1 年前You do understand that I have left the extension open-source by purpose, right?
The source is FREE (and will be), constantly maintaining it is a chore and thus a small one-time paywall and if you are not satisfied with the monetization decision, you're happy to downgrade; it just won't receive further updates. I believe that's a fair compromise.
I had a donation page for a month, but as you're an intellectual, you'd already know if people contributed or not.
It's currently priced at 5.99$ as a one-time lifetime license fee, is that a deal-breaker for you or you'd want a lower price, or paying is completely out of the question? - 评分 1 / 5来自 GinaYarr，1 年前Started out working great, but the new update requires you to pay and no longer skips ads. Probably because you have to pay for it to do it! lol The developer used the old bait and switch tactic. He advertised his "free" extension on every conversation about YouTube's ad block detection and once he got enough people, he put a paywall on it. You can use the old version which still works but there are other ad skippers out there that are truly free. Then he gets angry at the reviews because they state our "opinions". Dude, that's what a review is. An opinion.

发布于 1 年前I hope you understand how much time and energy it takes to maintain something like this where YouTube is actively trying to shut out everything for such a large user base while trying to work >80 hours on your own thing.
It's not technically bait-and-switch as if you are not satisfied with the monetization decision, you're happy to downgrade the version to 1.3 as I won't take anything down, it just won't be maintained. I think that is fair.
Most skippers don't work, and if they do, I would be happy to share them.
You're on point about reviews, a few of them rubbed me the wrong way but you're absolutely right, a review is an opinion. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 18126237，1 年前Aside from having to reload pages over and over cause this addon is scuffed af, this absolute garbade addon will lock u out of youtube after "skipping" 56 ads and u'll get a popup to pay the scummy developer. Shame

发布于 1 年前You using an open-source extension for not paying YouTube Premium for 13$/mo is not scummy but a developer investing his time to keep the extension updated for a month and now asking a one-time measly 5$ for life is scummy? - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 18125906，1 年前

- 评分 1 / 5来自 Sam，1 年前My friend, we are all using this extension to avoid paying for YouTube. If you think we'll pay for an extension instead, you're sorely mistaken.

发布于 1 年前It's currently priced at 5.99$ as a one-time lifetime license fee with guaranteed non-stop support for at least 12 months. That's 167.88$ for YouTube Premium, is that still a deal-breaker for you? - 评分 1 / 5来自 Daniel，1 年前License is stated to be MPL 2.0 but Source Code for the most recent version 1.5 is not made available. License Information should be updated.
开发者回应
发布于 1 年前The license requires that Modifications (as defined in Section 1.10 of the license) must be licensed under the MPL and made available to anyone to whom you distribute the Source Code. However, new files containing no MPL-licensed code are not Modifications, and therefore do not need to be distributed under the terms of the MPL, even if you create a Larger Work (as defined in Section 1.7) by using, compiling, or distributing the non-MPL files together with MPL-licensed files. This allows, for example, programs using MPL-licensed code to be statically linked to and distributed as part of a larger proprietary piece of software, which would not generally be possible under the terms of stronger copyleft licenses.
