Search giant says delays not specific to any browser – just those evading advert breaks. YMMV

          Freetube has Sponsorblock built-in.

            Most of the channels I watch with inline sponsor roll from the creator, they do a good job, and I am entertained by it.

              You have the option to disable sponsorblock in freetube.

              Obtrusive ads are frustrating.

              Perfectly integrated, entertaining, on-brand ads from creators I appreciate? No problem.

        I don’t care. I was giving you the opportunity to inform others about something you think is cool. You blew it.
