A browser extension that automates skipping ad on Youtube. This is not an ad blocker, it just automates the process of clicking on the "Skip Ad" button on Youtube.

@synox @Ekipogh Hi! Could you please let me know which browser you use this extension on and what version of the extension you have? I have found that the version in Edge has stopped working but am unable to replicate the issue on the latest version on Chrome Web Store. The version on Edge store is behind because of a delay with their reviews.

Can also confirm on Firefox: Extension version: 0.5.1 Firefox version: 119.0

Coincided with a UI change on Youtube:

Extension: 0.5.1 Firefox: 119.0.1

synox commented 10 months ago

Firefox: 120.0b9 (64-bit) Extension: 0.5.1

squgeim commented 10 months ago

Thanks.

Firefox is a few versions behind because they did not support manifest v3 when I ported the extension over. They now support it but there are differences from Chrome that needs to be accounted for.

I'll push a fix for Firefox with manifest v2 later today.

squgeim commented 10 months ago

Firefox add-on has been updated. Please update to 0.5.2. An update for Edge will be out as soon as their review is done.

synox commented 10 months ago

Thanks this seems to work.

Thank you. It works (Firefox 119.0 (64-bit)).

Ekipogh commented 10 months ago

Updated the extension. Works now. Thank you.
