Or is there a way to make it somehow auto skip? Figured out they opened Chrome instead of Firefox… Now I am interested in finding some small Bluetooth controller to skip videos in a playlist.

          Oh. You are right. I didn’t realize that’s what my daughter had opened… For some reason I just assumed YouTube won the war. I would edit to resolved but I am still curious about a simple Bluetooth button controller.

            The answer is yes, then. I haven’t looked for existing solutions but I know bluetooth buttons exist, and you can probably even vibe-code something to do it for you based on an existing adblocker, even if that has to run a headless firefox so it can run ublock origin or something in the background and use that to tell the timestamps of the ads. You have a turing-complete machine. It can do anything.

            I’m planning on getting a Rii Bluetooth controller for the computer on my tv. It seems well thought out, with a keyboard and mousepad on it. It’s not a simple few buttons though.
