Method #2: Decent, not as flexible, but only requires your browser - Use Ublock Origin + custom filter + Greasemonkey script

- Install the Ublock Origin plugin for your browser (available for both Firefox and Chrome): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

- Once installed, click the Ublock Origin logo on the top right of the screen, and click on "Open the dashboard" (an icon with sliders on it)

- Once in the dashboard, enable the "I am an advanced user" option. Click on the gears next to this text.

- At the bottom of this screen, you will see a line that says `userResourcesLocation` followed by `unset`. We're going to replace `unset`, with the following: `https://ttv-ublock.vercel.app/twitch-videoad.js` . Note, there must be a space between userResourceLocation and the URL (as there was originally between `userResourcesLocation` and `unset`). I'm using the ```` characters for reference, do not include them in the URL.

- Click Apply. Go back to the dashboard screen. Click on the Filter Lists tab. Click "Purge all caches" and then "Update now".

- Install the Tampermonkey plugin https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tampermonkey/

- Go to the top right, click on the monkey icon. Select "New user script"

- In this new screen, paste all the text found inside of this URL: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/simple-hacker/ddd81964b3e8bca47e0aead5ad19a707/raw/aa9525331d572e86fc6a682b7378e64df4540f21/refreshTwitchAd.js

- Save the script.

- Close Firefox/Chrome. Open it again

- You're done! Now we have accomplished the following: No pre-roll ads will appear, and anytime a mid-roll ad starts, the page will automatically refresh, going back to the stream. We're still losing two seconds or so of the stream, but it's better than 30.
