- Rated 1 out of 5by JoyFlameball, 20 dae geledeIt's stopped working. It won't skip sponsored sections anymore, or even show them in the progress bar.

Developer response
posted 2 maande geledeIt has done that since day one. It does that to allow you to unskip it. You can disable easily by clicking the "never show" button on the notice. - Rated 1 out of 5by bananas! bananas! bananas!, 2 maande geledeIt used to not be intrusive about what its blocking but now it will just pause the video for a second or two and give you this jarring pop-up about how its totally skipping for realsies.
Developer response
posted 2 maande geledeI'm not sure what you mean by that. Maybe the issue is it buffering as the skip was long? - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18270243, 2 maande geledeFunktioniert absolut nicht!!!!!! Es werden keine Werbfilmchen geblockt.

posted 2 maande geledeThis is not a traditional ad blocker. This extension only skips parts of the video where the creator themselves talks about a sponsor. - Rated 1 out of 5by Shinobi, 3 maande geledeDoesn't work on this Firefox Browser. It worked great on Opera GX tho. I might have to switch back to Opera GX.
- Rated 1 out of 5by twac2988, 3 maande geledeDemands you to tediously preview the sponsored segment with no option to disable this. I use quick hotkeys to quickly submit segments without getting in the way of my viewing experience. Now, I have an annoying popup demanding me to test if I did a good enough job. I use the ", and ." keys to make the segments frame perfect, and now, you want to waste my time even more, with the audacity to not even create a setting for this? I guess my volunteer work is over. Goodbye.

posted 3 maande geledeThere is a keybind for previewing exactly for this use-case. Just because you use `,` and `.` doesn't mean there can't be skipping issues. Remember, bad segments mean extra work for people moderating segments.
Goodbye - Rated 1 out of 5by NoonyaBeeznus, 3 maande geledeWorks well on YouTube, but breaks videos on other sites - in this case specifically Teachable courses. I'm not sure if it is something about the video player used (hotmart), but it blocks the player from loading in properly and returns a "Something went wrong" text in place of the video.
Issue was solved through Refreshing in Troubleshoot mode, as using regular Troubleshoot mode, uninstalling the add-on, and deleting browser preference data didn't work either.Developer response
posted 3 maande geledeThe SponsorBlock extension does not have access to any pages except for YouTube. It cannot possibly modify those pages. Another extension must be causing this. - Rated 1 out of 5by polios, 4 maande gelede
- Rated 1 out of 5by Haze, 4 maande geledeEither I'm stupid or is missing the point. Or both. Same every 1 min youtube commercials destroying any type of previous youtube experience. I thought this add-on would remove just that??
Developer response
posted 4 maande geledeYou are missing the point. SponsorBlock is not a traditional ad blocker but for skipping times inside of YouTube videos when the creator themselves promotes a product. It does not skip ads by YouTube. It is meant to be used alongside uBlock Origin - Rated 1 out of 5by ParsaJR, 4 maande gelede

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18123981, 6 maande geledeAbsolutely tanks performance, to the point where watching a video on YT with this extension causes fans to spin like crazy, and the video frames start to stutter.
Developer response
posted 6 maande geledeThis might be it getting stuck in a loop skipping back and forth between two timestamps. Could you send the video it happens on? - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14200416, 6 maande geledeDoesn't seem to be working anymore. I have a screenshot (https://imgur.com/a/tvPEZmR). Also is not working in Firefox on Windows and Mac. I also want to add that I did try and turn off all addons first. It is definitely SponsorBlock.
Developer response
posted 6 maande geledeThat notice has nothing to do with SponsorBlock. That is talking about adblockers. Extensions that can cause that include adblockers, ghostery, enhancer for youtube, and others. Developer response

posted 6 maande geledeIt's not supposed to, use uBlock Origin for that. This is for skipping sections inside videos - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18106247, 6 maande geledeNe fonctionne pas, toutes les pubs sont là !
