Extension summary

Better Twitch Adblock

!! PLEASE MAKE SURE TO DISABLE ANY OTHER TWITCH SPECIFIC AD BLOCKERS !!

How does it work?

The extension works by finding a Twitch stream source without ads and replacing the ad with the ad-less version. The ad-less version will be 480p, while the ad runs.

Twitch Ads will be blocked for pre-rolls and mid-rolls and also on VOD's. We also block third party trackers.

No personal information is needed or collected.

Any donations are very much welcome, as we do pay server costs to make this work. You can donate via Paypal at https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/ttvadblock
