        I personally am ok with sponsors. They directly support the creators, and are easy enough to skip. Much better than unskippable targeted ads to “support” a multi-billion-dollar company…

          Pretty sure they still do get paid since it’s based on views, SponsorBlock is just an Auto-skipping tool it’s not any different than scrubbing the bar manually to bypass it, though by being automated it is pretty seamless most of the time.
