Imagine a #browser add-on that detects sponsored segments in videos and automatically skips them.

@ilyess SponsorBlock! Surprised you just found out about it, you can skip paid sponsorships and even self promotions, intros and outros

@STORM I know!! Thinking back of all the times when I had a video playing in the background, and I had to stop what I'm doing, mute and skip 10s at a time until the sponsored segment is over... Not proud of myself right now lol

@ilyess Hey if you're watching on desktop I'd give freetube client a shot! It uses invidious (you can choose an instance or have a random instance per launch) for the stream & info, you can subscribe channels(without a account its like an RSS feed) it also has sponsorblock built in.
You can download it [here](freetubeapp.io/)

@STORM I'll check it out, thanks! Although, my general instinct is to not install an app for a service that can be delivered through a browser without too much compromise.
