Try the SponsorBlock browser extension for YouTube. Having the sponsor skipped automatically, and not even knowing what product it was for really did a big difference for me compared to manually skipping it.


harveyshinanigan

wait how does it even work ?


SadChara

I believe it's reported by the users, but I'm very surprised at how rarely I've opened a just published video and not have the sponsor segment already properly cut out.


ItsTheRaspimanManYT

I've seen a video with 900 views have a highlight submitted. I might be able to find it idk.


CrueltySquading

People work fast. I, myself, submit a lot of segments since for some reason I keep getting videos early


[deleted]

There's usually a popup on the normal YT site where it says an ad will show up later in the video. I presume the YTers themselves put in when an ad will show, and the extension sees that and skips past it.


Ichbindaheim

You can also submit sponsors in the UI of the video so they get skipped for future users


Cyvexx

user downloads extension, finds video with unmarked sponsor section, submits sponsor section to sponsorblock. sponsorblock then pulls from the database when future users visit the video


KriegsKuh

user submitted data


G_O_O_G_A_S

Like others said, it’s based off user submitted data. It even tracks your stats if you submit a time stamp for a sponsorship. Ive only done like 1 or 2 but have racked up like 10 hours of saved time for other users


Desperate-Will-8585

it's a fucking life saver yeah

Sponsorblock my beloved

I particularly like SomeMoreNews' ad reads where it's obvious they pick sponsors based on how lenient they are with letting them literally tell you the product is useless slop. You pick up on phrases like "according to our sponsor" and "supposedly" a lot. I still skip them most of the time.


h4724

Internet Shaquille begins all of his ad reads with "\[company\] has paid to be mentioned at the end of this video", and apparently a lot of sponsors don't like that at all. He generally has super high integrity about his ads which I respect a lot.


liguy181

They also put the red border around it which makes it super easy to see when the ad read is over


SecretImaginaryMan

I heard that if you skip the ads, Wormbo will come to wherever you are when you least expect it and take everything that makes you human, and you’ll never know what happened or what’s missing because you won’t be able to express any emotions ever again


Oddish_Femboy

Is that how he reproduces


SecretImaginaryMan

No one really knows


The_Cucumber_Man1

I'm sure it involves creamed corn


Oddish_Femboy

With my corn comment the other day I think my reproduction might also involve corn.


yuligan

Why would he reproduce? We already have him and don't need more


Pepperonier

I love when Cody has to drink the repulsive green liquid. He always looks like he's about to throw up.


Mulesam

Ag1 is the most repulsive Shit based on his chugging alone


Oddish_Femboy

"Now here's the part of the video where I drink the product! (Extremely forced smile) (long chug) (AoouGH.) YUP! Good stuff (smile) Head on down to Athletic Greens and try AG1 today! Your butthole will like it."


Chief106

“And now a word f-“ *90s >>*


Minibotas

“Ah shit it was a minute long ad read” *30s <<* SURPRISE, IT WAS A MINUTE AND TWENTY SECONDS!


alexjuuhh

The only ad reads I’ll watch are Noodle’s and maybe TomSka’s, because both usually put quite some effort into them.


drago_varior

TomSka just has amazing ad skits


Metatality

I'll add ordinary sausage to that


inemsn

TomSka and Jay Foreman are the best advertisers on the planet because they're the only advertisers worth watching the ads of. Especially when TomSka throws shade at his own sponsor lmao.


drago_varior

Also the fake mobile game ad he made in the plagarism vid


janabottomslutwhore

and jay foreman


Garrorr

Isn't Noodle some [corpo bitch](https://youtu.be/FafzxKtZ26E)? How does he even make his ads entertaining.


alexjuuhh

I'm gonna be honest, I don't have time to watch a 1 hour video so I kinda skimmed through it and CJ makes a lot of good points, I guess Noodle isn't great. But I really enjoyed his video about Spongebob and the band Ween from last month so idk. I guess sometimes people just kinda suck a bit? ETA: Also I'm just not invested enough in video game drama or youtube drama to really... give a shit? Idk, I've got important things to do in life and sometimes I'll watch a fun lil video essay during dinner.


OkamiLeek006

What does that term even mean here? I don't feel like watching a 1.2 hour video just to figure it out 😭


Garrorr

Tbh I just wanted to insult him coz I don't like him lmao. But like anyways Noodle basically defended gaming industry standards that broken games are fine how they are released because if games were of better quality then that would be too much work or whatever. For his video essay he had trouble finding sources to back his claims up so he manipulated an audio clip of someone with authority on this subject to sound like they're backing him up, when it's the exact opposite. Like there was no way in hell the clip he used to back himself up was not meant to be straight up lying to his audience. Plus his past behaviour of following exclusively "the money" is pretty shitty too. Like he doesn't have a love for the arts, he just wants money. He's a grifter. The relation to this post is that, how could someone who sucks corpo dick make an ad that is not just shit.


RamboDash15

A good ad is still an ad


zebra-king

I watch Internet Comment Etiquette for the ads


RedditsNinja23

Advertisements are annoying


MahouShoujoDysphoria

Several segments skipped 👍👎 Unskip (Enter) [4s]


Jealous_Ring1395

the only sponsored section of anything that I don't skip through is The yard


ljkhadgawuydbajw

yardigan in the wild holy shit. yeah the yards ad reads are fine because it’s just like another segment of the pod but they have to also read some sponsor lines on top of it. sometimes it’s fun to see how deranged they can get without the sponsor cutting them


r_slash_scrappy

Hannibal lector talking abt 2 girls one cup is a golden tier bit for an ad read


Butternoob2000

Ad read aimen is a different specimen and he must be observed and documented


_S1syphus

Some More News, NakeyJakey, and Internet Comment Etiquette put in a lot of effort which I *do* appreciate (for 10 seconds before I skip it)


lurkerlarry42069

JAKE, JAKE, AND JAKEY, -AT LAW-


Kobruh456

I still watch Caddicarus sponsored segments (Spons is my second favourite son)


General-WanObi

I also watch through caddy’s sponsored segment (spons has a gun pointed at my family)


-Orotoro-

Brutalmoose with his unhinged Hello Fresh ads my beloved


humanapoptosis

I'll be in an intense fire fight in a multiplayer game and the moment I hear a sponsorship i'm still alt-tabbing to skip it. Honestly the quirky ones are more annoying to me than the regular ones. It's just a sudden tonal shift in the video that feels running into a brick wall at full speed. When it's just a normal ad read there's a smaller chance I notice it to begin with. It's probably more effective subliminal advertisement than any of the high effort quirky ad skits.


MrMerchandise

DJ peach cobbler’s ads are legitimately funny though


Mypooburns

what about internet comment ettiquete


Drakula_dont_suck

WOT


Axi28

i love noodle ads because it is an unrelated skit he did for like 20 seconds, the ad read i then skip, and then another funny fake ad


BeholdTheLemon

'lets jump right into \[the topic of the video\]' 'but first'


Responsible_Pace9062

I don't care how wacky the ad is Woolie, I'm not letting you shave my balls.


FNAF_Movie

Millionaires watching their entire establishment burn to the ground after I skip to the most replayed section of a video (9/10 times it'll always be after the adread)


sfVoca

The one sponser I watched was from IDidAThing because all he did was try and fail to destroy the shit they sent him. Made me interested in the product, to say the least.


hikikostar

me w sponsorblock on vanced: 😎


GhostlyRuminations

MistaGG the exception


Doctor_Salvatore

The ONLY one I do not skip is Badger's, because they're usually too short and he keeps it snappy with his usual blend of humour fitted in really well, so it doesn't bother me.


K3egan

The best ad read I have ever seen had a time code to skip to the end but it wasn't actually the end and I was so stuck I watched the entire thing out of respect


emeraldeyesshine

ibi_trans_rights

Phlanispo

I'm the opposite, if I like the creator I try to sit through the whole ad read because I'm worried fast-forwarding through will flag something with the analytics and the creator gets less money.

I will always watch Internet comment ettiquite's ads they're great


brokensilence32

Only exception to this is occasionally Some More News.


dom_751

im usually always this way but [jeffiot's newest video](https://youtu.be/lQYFN2o6DWY) changed that


justanotherenby009

While I agree with you I will watch a handful of my favorite youtubers ads because two of them go all out and make it actually entertaining. I don't mind a paid sponsorship and prefer it a lot to the ads youtube forces me to watch. At least I know sponsorship money actually goes to the tuber.
