If you're still using Chrome it's a you problem.

Firefox + ublock origin + SponsorBlock for youtube is great. Works on mobile too!

It works on Android, but I don't believe it works on iOS.

To add to this- playback also continues with the screen off too. So ya, ff mobile with those extensions is basically yt premium XD

I've been using a chromebook for the last 4 years and it's been great for my needs (youtube, streaming, porn, etc), but I am shopping for a windows machine now because fuck google.

I'm not too familiar with chrome books, i know some of them are insanely locked down to prevent this.. but see if theres a linux distro compatible with your chromebook, and if its possible to slap a linux install on it.

save you having to buy a new machine, possibly.
