Comment on Google is intentionally throttling YouTube videos, slowing down users with ad blockers

  Skytube has an option for clipping mid-video ads out of downloaded videos, if that helps.

    I use SponsorBlock for more than just skipping sponsored segments. It’s also useful for skipping intros, “like and subscribe” messages, and other general annoyances in most YouTube videos. Once you get used to it, you can’t go without.

      Same here. The SponsorBlock in SkyTube skips intros and “like and subscribe”, too. Even in downloads.

        Good to know, thanks.
