Review Summary
Users find Ad Skipper generally effective at skipping YouTube ads and improving viewing experience across various browsers. Many praise its fast performance and usability. However, multiple reviews report that YouTube's evolving anti-ad-block measures often detect and disable the extension, causing freezes or endless ad screens. Some note the need to manually click skip buttons and slight video delays after ads. Overall, while successful most of the time, the extension faces challenges keeping pace with YouTube's ad system updates.
