Automatically skips YouTube ads whenever possible in such a way that the content creator gets paid for their workVersion 0.4 update: Fixed the extension not recognising ads if the ads took a long time to load. This is the big fix and moves things to being much more stable :)
This add on handles skipping ads automatically such that the content creator always gets paid for their work. Instead of skipping the ad after 5 seconds, it will wait for 31 seconds after which it'll click on the skip ad button for you.
It even mutes the ad if it's longer than 30 seconds so that you can go about checking something else while the ad plays in the background. The moment it goes back to the video you wanted to watch, it'll unmute it for you automatically.
Help support the people who create content for you :)
This does not click on any ads or introduce any kind of fraudulent behaviour. I made this because I would always wait for 30 seconds of ads to complete before clicking skip. But sitting through 30 seconds for every video can get boring so I went ahead and made this for myself and now I'm sharing it with others :)

Version 0.3 update! - Fixes bug where skippable ads less than 30 seconds end up breaking. Also adds the ability to manually skip ads and not have the extension go crazy.
