    Please do not use Sponserblock unless you support that creator in some other way; or you just don’t care about them.

      The Tuber already got paid by the sponsor. And sponsors look at click trough and conversion rates not views. If I’m not going to buy what they are selling me I might as well skip the ad. I don’t need NordVPN or Squarespace or whatever shit they are trying to push on me.

      If you want to support a creator, give them a quarter and block the ads. Seriously. That quarter is worth more than any ad revenue they will ever get from you watching their videos.

      I’m allergic to advertisement, I’d rather not watch a video at all than watching the ads in it. SponsorBlock for me is just an automation of what I would do anyway pressing forward 5-7 times to jump over this section. I will not buy this stuff anyway it’s just a waste of my time. I go even so far that I don’t mind paying for YouTube Premium because this removes the advertisement, but there is no way to pay for skipping sponsors automatically other than SponsorBlock.

      Creators don’t get money for you watching their sponsorship, only if you click through and do something with it

      If you don’t plan on interacting with the sponsorship we then blocking it just saves time

      If anything it should be the other way around since sponsor spots don’t make money per person watching them.
