About SponsorBlock
Spot SponsorBlock is a crowdsourced browser extension for Spotify podcasts. It uses the SponsorBlock API to skip sponsor segments. The source code is open and the segment database can be downloaded by anyone. A public API is available for those who want to host a mirror.
With the extension, you can automatically skip sponsor segments the system knows about and submit new sponsor times when you hear them. It also supports skipping intros, outros, and self-promotions, and can skip to a point marked as a highlight. The site links to server status information, documentation, community tools, and Discord and Matrix chat channels.
It suits people who listen to Spotify podcasts in a web browser and want fewer interruptions. The site notes it works best alongside Spotify Premium, so Premium listeners using the web player are the main audience.
