Neither of these are available on Apple TV. Otherwise, you make a good suggestion; install them where available.




At least for SponsorBlock you can run iSponsorBlockTV[1] on another computer on the same network - in addition to skipping sponsored segments, it also mutes YouTube’s own ads and auto-skips them as soon as it can.

I've been using this for a while. It's certainly better than nothing, but there are limitations. Most notably for me, automatic muting doesn't work when HomePods are the default output[1]

Thanks, it looks like a helpful workaround for now. Hoping someday SponsorBlock can be ported to tvOS.

It’s pretty good, I run this on my little server.
