very good extension. it always updates when youtube's design changes. it also clarifies if a setting may stop revenue. quoting senator armstrong: "power is back where it belongs, in the hands of the people!"
Update the design of the button. Youtube's UI has been redesigned. Great addon. Sometimes when you switch from video on a channel that has ads allowed to a channel that doesn't, it starts playing an ad for a second and then the ad gets skipped. Not a big deal but just wanted to mention it.
Not sure if I can give any clarifying data, but this extension seems to not work. I've whitelisted several channels and have seen no ads.
This good apps.
Works fine here! I know is must be complicated, but it would be amazing if the extension could open a second tab to play the video with the adds muted (maybe in low resolution to save data), so we can still watch the video in the main tab without the adds. Sometimes I do that manually to help the channels. =}
Works perfectly, thank you
I use this every day and it works great
Great idea, but despite it changing the URL like it should, it still skips through ads on channels I have whitelisted
Worked for the first few days, but then it stopped detecting advertisers even when watching videos. Very disappointing. I really want to support the channels I'm subbed to, but this extension needs more work before I can recommend it to anyone else.
Brilliant, cheers I did see a suggestion asking for the ability to toggle the short ads on (5-6 secs) but still block the longer 30 sec ads, would this be possible? Anyway, as is works perfectly :)
Essential app, thank you!
Does this extension only block ads from the white listed channels or it completely blocks all other videos on you tube except the whitelisted ones?....like I need an extension which blocks all other videos on you tube except the ones I select. Pls answer me? If it can do so too then please give step by step instructions...
Great extension. Works perfectly when you follow the instructions
Updated: Allot of people are having issues keeping ublock working as it disables itself if you put in the below. *youtube.com/*&disableadblock=1 HOWEVER if you put in the below it appears to work, you can turn off the whitelist warning in this extensions options. *youtube.com/*&disableadblock=1* (notice a * at the end, that is only change, and ublock will disable/enable correctly depending on url whereas before it would disable and hash out this line)
not working for me what so ever.
This is a scam isn't it? All those comments writing in caps how it works, doesn't work at all or VERY sporadically. (actually worked once on a single video)
NO IDEA why this has good reviews. All it does in like enable ads on all videos. Sometimes the ad goes for like a few seconds then auto-skips to the actual video (on channels ads are NOT enabled on). You have to refresh the page to make the ads actually work. You have to refresh to make ads go away on channels it's disabled on. I think. I don't know. It's not consistent AT ALL and just sucks. So much. Doesn't do as advertised at all. I hate it. Die. Bye.
Works perfectly well on Vivaldi with uBlock. It also looks freaking gorgeous.
I can't believe it actually worked!
MUST HAVE for ethically blocking ads on youtube 10/10 seriously underrated
Been using this extension for a few months now & it has worked flawlessly. Over the past couple of weeks I noticed an issue where the "Skip Ad" button that would show up after 5 seconds disappeared. Went to the Github page & filed an issue. Worked through some things with x0a & in 48 hours we got the 0.9.8 release that has fixed that old issue. Developer is awesome for sure, and I like being able to support YouTuber's I follow while blocking out people who do like 100 ads a minute on their videos that I may watch for a few minutes. Thanks for this extension!
Fantastic add-on. Great work.
This is essential for helping your favorite channels on youtube earn revenue. 10/10. Have been using over 6 mos and no problem.
Works. Can someone confirm that it isn't malware though? Is the code open-source?
Works brilliant. I am very surprised, so happy I found it.
Breaks uBlock Origin & youtube entirely, to the point where I cannot recommend this extension to ANYONE.
This actually works.
The only app/script/etc. that I'm aware of which ACTUALLY allows you to whitelist YouTube channels if you're using uBlock Origin. My one complaint is that I would like to be able to add channels to my whitelist through the extension, rather then having to do so on a channel/video. You can remove channels from your whitelist within the extension, and import/export, but you can't just type the name of a channel and add it to your list. I would appreciate that option, but overall, the extension still gets the job done, and is pretty easy to use, so I definitely recommend it.
It works as intended. Now I can feel better about myself.
Awesome! I really needed this! But there is one bug: Enabling ads on a specific video doesn't automatically enable it for the channel page, yet on the channel page its shown as enabled. While enabling ads on channel page enables it for both the channel page and all videos from the channel. That's how it's supposed to work.
Looks to be working great. Would be awesome if I could "enable ads" from the channel page, not just from a video.
Been looking for something like this forever. Works great.
Works well, would love a firefox version though.
A much needed feature for whitelisting our favorite YT channels. Thank you for this!
Sadly the subscribe button on YouTube has moved so this extension is annoying to use now... but for the months I was using it before, it was great!
The script I was using stopped working and I found this. Works great.
Thanks
Better than greasemonkey scripts
