No worries, let me block the out going requests and then skip the ads for you. This very simple app that will block out going requests and then automatically click "Skip Ads" for you.
The skip ads timer, is just an overlay, if you inspect the element, you'll see the "SkipĀ Ads" button is styled as display none.
This is definitely a project I want to continue developing. The next goal is to figure out how to make it more browser compatible. Then to eventually see if there is a way to stop ads from causing a split second disruption. Might have to look into
webRequest, webRequestBlocking and webNavigation? Sounds like a fun rabbit hole to go down.
