YouTube now hides the Skip button for ads until you can use it

Key Takeaways

  • YouTube ad segments can be annoying but have a Skip option available after a few seconds.

  • Users have noticed a change in the Skip button’s display, potentially leading to confusion.

  • The absence of a countdown timer in the Skip button’s usual spot seems to be intentional.

    I started using YTDLP to download the shows I care about and have them saved offline.

    I used to watch a show that got taken down. The show came back online few months later with heavy modifications to remove any potential DMCA footage from it.
