Hi all, well its been a labour of love. I have much more appreciation for the youtube devs after trying to recreate my own version. The benefits of SkipVids.com :
1) No Ads. Skips sponsorship messages too thanks to Sponserblock API
2) Free Background Playback
3) Free PiP (picture in picture)
4) Lite - it uses about 1/5 the resource of YouTube
5) Private - we store nothing
6) View Dislike count, thanks to RYD API (not 100% accurate)
7) Casting is supported when using SkipVids.com on desktop
8) and so much more
Give it a go, its not perfect but its pretty good IMHO.
