Twitch Adblock

Twitch Adblock blocks ads on Twitch by switching to an ad-free version of the stream at 480p during the ad-time and automatically switches back to the original video quality after the ad-time is over. This is 100% done locally, no proxies/VPNs or 3rd party scripts/websites are being used. This extension does not collect/share any of your personal information and the code is public.

It is recommended to use this extension along with UBlock Origin.

The original author of this extension is "saucettv". This extension will always stay donation- and referral-link free.
