Extension summary
What is Skipper?
Skipper is a free, open-source browser extension that helps users easily skip ads on websites like YouTube. It's designed with accessibility in mind, making it perfect for people with disabilities who may struggle with repetitive manual tasks. Unlike ad-blockers, Skipper doesn't harm creators, platforms, or advertisers, and it's not intended to block ads.
Why choose Skipper?
If interacting with "skip" buttons is challenging due to a disability, you enjoy multitasking with YouTube in the background, or forced waiting times on ads annoy you, Skipper is a perfect choice.
Supports creators
Skipper doesn't take away ad revenue from creators or violate YouTube's terms of service. Instead, it uses your browser's built-in features to interact with websites just like a regular user, ensuring no harm to website owners, advertisers, or creators.
Always free and open-source
Some extensions charge money or trick you into downloading before asking for payment. With Skipper, you won't have to worry about that. It's always free, open-source, and committed to user safety.
