Sponsorblock is great for cleaning this crap up. Besides skipping sponsor segments, I have it set to autoskip unpaid/self promotion, interaction reminders, intermissions/intros, endcards/credits, and filler tangent/jokes set to manual skip.
- Gareth321 3y agoSponsorBlock is basically mandatory to watch YouTube now. I can’t even imagine what it would be like without Premium.
- 0x0203 3y agoOne thing I really wish sponsorblock would add is the ability to mask off some part of the screen with an option to mute. More and more channels are embedding on-screen ads, animations, and interaction "reminders" that are, at best, distracting.
- seabass-labrax 3y agouBlock Origin is my extension of choice for this. It makes it really easy to block those distractions, and there are quite a few pre-existing filters to choose from.
- callalex 3y agoI think you missed what the poster is asking for. They want to block a portion of the video itself. For example when you watch the news on TV, there is constant scrolling text on the bottom of the screen with the latest headlines. They want to block stuff like that.
- seabass-labrax 3y agoI believe you're right! I can't think of any extension that would be able to modify the picture of a stream itself in real-time. What came to my mind was the kind of 'picture-in-picture' video that some questionable news sites display as you scroll down an article, usually a distracting broadcast which is barely related to the news itself.
