    YT ReVanced has Sponsorblock built in, it can skip those ads for you. It is community-run though, somebody has to have watched it first to flag that segment.

    That said, I usually let those run to support the channel. The creators aren’t making much from standard ads, but I’ll watch the ones they actually get paid for.

      Wow, that’s an incredible feature.

      As an aside, do you know if they actually get paid more if you watch those types of ads? How do they know that you watched it?

      There is one channel in particular that I watch, and I just get tired of hearing about Nord VPN on every single video. I’ve heard the pitch. I don’t need a VPN.
