I've been annoyed by ads interrupting videos and tracking scripts everywhere, so I built StreamBoost — a browser extension that auto-skips video ads, blocks trackers, and adds video shortcuts (Picture-in-Picture, playback speed control, etc).
It's written in vanilla JavaScript using the WebExtensions API, MV3 compatible. Blocks 20+ known ad/tracker domains and handles popup/popunder blocking too.
Fully open source under GPL-3.0 — repo has the full source, README with setup instructions, and it's open for contributions if anyone wants to extend the blocklist or add features.

Happy to answer questions about the implementation or hear feedback on the approach.
