Developer response
posted 3 jaar geledeThe issue seems to be that the extension doesn't have permission to the domain used for getting the YouTube video info. The next update adds a check for it and will then prompt a permission prompt. The current workaround is to give it access to all sites: https://github.com/ajayyy/SponsorBlock/issues/611#issuecomment-801579094
Next update is still WIP, but that part is already implemented if you want to clone from source: https://github.com/ajayyy/SponsorBlock/pull/690

- Rated 5 out of 5by Nerthazul, 2 dae geledeIncredible time-saver, skips all the BS in the video automatically. You actually don't even notice how much time you save with this addon. It is invaluable.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Alex, 3 dae geledeI love the extension, it is a must-have to enjoy youtube.
However, it is very broken on mobile right now.
After installing, in fullscreen, the video flips to portrait mode every 20 seconds or so. (Sometimes by itself, sometimes as a reaction to the screen being tapped).
The only way to fix it is to go out of FS or double tap to skip 10 seconds of the video.
It is incredibly annoying and by rating one star my intentions are only for the dev to give the issue the appropriate amount of attention it deserves as I am not the only one who suffers from this problem.
There is an unresolved github thread about it and there are reviews here that mention the same issue.
As soon as it is fixed, I will five it the 5+ starts this amazing extension deserves. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17950215, 3 dae gelede

- Rated 5 out of 5by AnonFF User, 5 dae geledeYoutube has started buffering my videos and sometimes not even loading them, and I've sourced this extension as the problem by testing all my extensions individually. I still give it 5 stars, F**k youtube.

- Rated 3 out of 5by TS, 11 dae geledeOften gets the full screen orientation wrong when viewing on mobile. It will change the orientation after it auto skips, if you double tap to manually skip, or sometimes even simplely taping the screen to view the time elapsed. A very bizarre and annoying bug but otherwise works fine.

- Rated 5 out of 5by false, 14 dae geledeYouTube is unwatchable without this add-on. Sponsored segments being shoved down your throat is insufferable and this removes all of that and more including useless sound segments in music videos.
