Or is there a way to make it somehow auto skip? Figured out they opened Chrome instead of Firefox… Now I am interested in finding some small Bluetooth controller to skip videos in a playlist.

    On desktop Firefox+ ublock origin+ sponsored block.
    On mobile: Tubular.
    You won’t see a single ad not only no YouTube but also everywhere

      to add to this thread I use RVX (YouTube re-vanced extended) on mobile.
      I also use Seal (ytdlp UI) to download videos on mobile.

      I’ve also tried greyjay but it kept erroring out like every other week and id have to re-login every time. Also I’m not very interested in other platforms than YouTube.

      On desktop i use your recommendations, but I use Parabolic (ytdlp UI) to download also.

        I thought RVX was dead? Did they bring it back? I’ve been using the normal ReVanced and it works great.

          tbh I don’t know the history of it. My normal revanced stopped working a couple months ago and when searching how to update it a reddit thread recommended it. I installed and it’s been working fine since ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

        You may move to a newpipe or fork like tubular or pipepipe. On revanced, you are still running Google binaries. I don’t know how grayjay is for YouTube, but I use it for Odyssey. Pipepipe has some extra platform by the way.

      Freetube is great too. Its like newpipe for desktop. Lets you subscribe, have view history, and save playlists locally. Has sponsorblock and dearrow and is accountless.

      Sometimes breaks so have to go back to using firefox + ublock while waiting for update tp fix wharever youtube does.
