    I also made an alternate YouTube player with a different feature set (for sharing/reviewing segments of dance videos)

    Your app gave me some ideas. Here are some ideas your app might use:

    - Load video by detecting YouTube ID/URL in clipboard

    - Hide YouTube "branding" in paused/thumbnail state. (Mostly to hide "More videos" UI)

    - (A-B) looping

    - Playback speed controls

    - Mute

    This looks really nice, but... you went so far to remove all the annoying things just to add some annoying notifications... you get about 3 of them per video loaded.

    A feature I would love to see in a YouTube player: better transcript view

    - Single click to open transcript

    - Transcript not crammed into tiny window in corner

    - Often I use the transcript as a navigation tool when (re)viewing a long video. Especially when I want to share a specific part of a video.

    ---

    And I found a bug in SkipCut when clicking a FAQ:

    - If the video was started (then paused) opening a FAQ starts the video (audio).

    - Possibly related? often the browser jumps down the page, so the FAQ I clicked is not visible unless I scroll back up. (Or maybe it is scrolling the FAQ to near the top of the viewport? It's disorienting. If intentional, a smooth scroll animation may help.)

    That sounds like a dream come true. Seriously, YouTube without ads, sponsors, and that endless scroll trap. I need that in my life. Cool name too. Reach out to me on x (@odehahwal) and let me support your launch on PH or anywhere else. Cheers

    just tried it out with replacing the youtube.com in url to skipcut.com and it seems like there is a bug where the video doesn't show

    keep up the great work!

    How does it work?

      It uses an embed player, like how IMDb or any website uses it. When I added YouTube videos to my website, I observed that ads never show there, so I made it and added a sponsor block too. Now, I can watch videos on any device or share links without anyone installing anything.

        I also noticed embedded YouTube videos don't seem to play ads. I am planning to make a beat-aware YouTube player, so I was wondering how ads would affect the timing...
