Skipioo

What it does

YouTube Premium costs $168/year to remove ads. Skipioo does it free. Just swap the domain: youtube.com/watch?v=xyz → skipioo.com/watch?v=xyz No extension. No account. No install. Works on mobile, desktop, and Smart TV. ✔ Zero ads (pre-roll, mid-roll, overlays) ✔ Background playback ✔ Playlist support ✔ Video downloads ✔ No tracking Ad-free YouTube shouldn't cost $14/month. So I made it free.

  YouTube banned adblockers so I built an extension to skip their ads2023 · ▲713

  Hi HN! Since Youtube no longer allows AdBlockers, I built my own extension to get around their video ads. If there is an ad it temporarily manipulates the video; Mutes the volume, sets speed to 10x, and skips it if there is a button.

  I built a cleaner YouTube – no ads, sponsors, or doomscrolling2025 · skipcut.com · ▲22

  Hi HN! I built SkipCut it’s like an ad-free, distraction-free YouTube with useful extras: background play, SponsorBlock, dark mode, playlist support, local history, download/share buttons… and it works on any device. No install. No login. Here’s the best part: It works just by replacing "youtube" with "skipcut" in the video link. You skip all the boring stuff — ads, sponsors, intros, silence, filler and just watch what matters. Why it’s different: No comments. No suggested videos. No clickbait. I made this for my kid, I create a playlist and just send a SkipCut link like:…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
