SponsorBlock is an open-source crowdsourced browser extension to skip sponsor segments in YouTube videos. Users submit when a sponsor happens from the extension, and the extension automatically skips sponsors it knows about. It also supports skipping other categories, such as intros, outros and reminders to subscribe.
It also supports Invidio.us.

Server
The backend server code is available here: https://github.com/ajayyy/SponsorBlockServer
To make sure that this project doesn't die, I have made the database publicly downloadable at https://sponsor.ajay.app/database (License). If you are planning on using the database in another project, please read the API Docs page for more information.
The dataset and API are now being used in some ports as well as a neural network.
