Installed · 3 steps to the fastest start

You're in. Here's the setup that works best.

The extension already works. These three steps get you from a 5-second start delay to about 2.5 seconds on videos YouTube penalises.

1. 01

   Install uBlock Origin Lite

   If you do not have an ad blocker yet, uBlock Origin Lite is the one we test against. It blocks the ads; Tubento handles the penalty.

2. 02

   Set youtube.com to Basic

   Click the uBOL icon on any YouTube page and choose Basic. Basic keeps network blocking and lets Tubento manage the page. Optimal or Complete also work; the extension will notice and step back to only hiding the toast.

3. 03

   Play a video and watch the button

   Open the Tubento popup. The button should be green. The first few videos are a trial run while the extension decides which mode works with your setup.

What should Tubento do next?

This extension is the first tool of a larger set. Tick what you would use and we will email you when it ships.
