About SponsorBlock for YT Music

SponsorBlock for YouTube Music is an open-source tweak that skips non-music segments during playback in YouTube Music. Its settings can be reached through Settings → SponsorBlock. The repository provides the source code and build instructions rather than a packaged download: building requires Theos and the YouTubeHeader placed in $THEOS/include/YouTubeHeader, after which make clean package produces a deb for rootful environments, or make clean package ROOTLESS=1 for rootless ones. The project is licensed under GPL-3.0 and shows 7 commits, 38 stars and 6 forks.
