    Amazing Work! To the Dev, Please Please don't be discouraged by the negative people out there complaining about a little dono or support for you work. wE all have to eat don't we, and you are single handedly giving us all a solution. Thank you and PLEASE keep it up! NOTE: I will add that this was working however since the 10th it has stopped working and won't even count ads. (firefox) I'm sure you will get on top of it.

    Thank you so much for your kind words.

    The new version is just going live, please update to the newest version and report if it still doesn't work. Hopefully it will.

    I've been using the extension with Chrome and Vivaldi. It's been working very well. The quick pauses as the extension does its work are usually so short that I barely notice them. Maybe once per day, I'll see the first full second of an ad.

    Accepting ads and keeping them out of the user's way is an elegant solution to the problem. I hope the developers can keep the extension working as intended.

    Please upgrade the extension to v2.1 (Chrome) so as to lower the frequency of the donation popups, they were fixed not to be incessant.

    The initial wait to connect to YouTube is a bit long, but once the site is loaded, it is comfortable. So far, I have not received any messages telling me to disable ad-blocking protection.

    I'm in a country where YouTube totally sucks at reviewing and blocking scummy ads from posting (usually stock scams and online casino scams.) So I don't mind paying support since it's WAY better than paying YouTube when YouTube does nothing to block illegal ads. Thank you and please keep up the great work for us Firefox users.

    I upgraded to 2.0 and still didn't work. However removing the add-on then re-adding resolved the problem.

    I contributed, as I believe that if someone creates something useful, they should be rewarded (yes, I am one of THOSE people who actually paid for Winrar.) Updated my review score, as the add-on now works.

    If you're not on 2.0, please upgrade it. The hard paywall was removed and it works even after the limit is passed. Just close the notice and refresh the tab.


    Moreover, if you contributed (thank you so much), please email me at 0x48piraj@gmail.com so I can grant you a lifetime license.

    Don't worry, the last version will soon stop working because YouTube already patched, it's not pushed globally yet so it's still working.

    Please update the version to 2.0 and it will remove the constant paywall mechanism.

    If it doesn't work before the limit is reached, please hop over to the GitHub issues and create one explaining your problem.

    thanks Piyush i installed it a few days ago, as other people are saying the update stopped it working. I removed it and reinstalled, it now works again. If it does have an ad on the homepage a refresh gets rid. Thanks again for you work :)

    The people are not happy with the monetization, and if you are too, I would love to know the price-point you'd be willing to pay one-time as a good gesture to continue using it or you'd want it free but would be okay if it gets broken by YouTube and stops working altogether?

    I had no trouble getting this to work with all of my other blockers and extensions except one - Malwarebytes Browser Guard. In its configuration widget, turning it off for the "Current Website" (youtube), did not work. It had to be globally disabled.
