Rated 3 out of 5
by Firefox user 13545587, 2 years agoThe idea is nice, but lately I had to switch everything to "manual skip" because the voting system apparently somewhat "works" on popular videos only.
The amount of ppl adding segments seemingly at random/labeling them incorrectly seems to increase lately (I had 0 problems ~1 year ago).
I don't know if they are just idiots with the urge to do something, or are (tinfoil) actively trying to discredit the addon, and I don't care tbh.
As smn said: "If I downvote an inaccurate segment, please make it NOT show up ever again". That's what I'm looking for in any upcoming alternative.

posted 2 years agoAre you sure there isn't some other issue causing this? I have been noticing a lot less random segments in recent months.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Wuzzle, 2 days agoWould've given this five stars a few years ago but apparently the lead dev is incapable of communicating properly with his moderators and will just remove your mod status without warning and block you before you even get the chance to ask why, forcing you to complain on his public discord server to get an answer out of him
EDIT: Or leave a one star review on his other extension, DeArrow - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18419330, 3 days ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by kloassie, 4 days agoWorks like a charm. I would just like an option for a personal whitelist, where I might list channels that I *do* want to see all adds from (eg security channels that I trust, or other actually useful information channels that are sponsored by companies/products that I might actually be interested in). But the (current?) lack of this option is not diminishing my rating since the add-on works exactly as it's described and supposed to, plus I didn't do Jack Squat in the programming of this extension myself so who am I to complain

- Rated 4 out of 5by Viktor, 12 days agonice addon, but unfortunately the "vip users" oftenly downvotes other people's suggestions from their alt accounts just to place their own segment mark on exact same spot and farm the views and likes

posted 11 days agoOur goal is to make the best skips possible, even a small change in milliseconds can cause problems when skipping.
Make sure to use the preview button to make sure your segments are skipping well so that a moderator doesn't have to spend time fixing your mistakes. - Rated 5 out of 5by cap11235, 12 days ago
