    Cool.

    Still sticking with uBlock and SponsorBlock (skips all the “this video was sponsored by” segments on YouTube).

      SponsorBlock is not cool. This is the main revenue source of creators.

      Adblock on the other hand in a cancer in youtube and has to go.

        Sponsors don’t see if you skipped their ad segment.

          Sure they do.

          Edit: I have a YouTube channel. The metrics are exportable. This is not a debate — advertisers often ask for these metrics. They absolutely can see when big channels have high SponsorBlock rates.
