Say goodbye to the pain of watching ads for long periods of time because this extension allows you to quickly reduce a 30-second ad to a second or two. It not only speeds up the display of ads, but also mutes sound by default.
Ad Acceleration, available in the Chrome Web Store (also compatible with Edge), cleverly uses YouTube’s playback speed controls by leveraging the browser’s video player to speed up ad serving.
While its impact on payments to creators remains unclear, this workaround offers users a less intrusive alternative to traditional ad blockers, which YouTube is actively fighting.
