Doing me a favour at that point, maybe I should just find better more productive things to do.

It's like the Netflix "no account sharing" BS earlier this year: it didn't push me to get my own Netflix account, it just pushed me to not watch Netflix content at all. Same thing is going to happen with Disney+ next month; same will happen to all of them if they keep going down this road.
Sponsorblock is a fantastic addition to the Firefox arsenal. It auto removes the in video paid promotions, and does a very good job of it, too.
