    Supposing that I sign to YT Premium (spoiler: I will not): Does the Nord VPN, Skillshare, BetterHelp and other sponsored bull*hit part of the videos skip automatically, or I will need to manually skip that part anyway?

      No, those are usually embedded into the video itself as a segment by the content creator. However, SponsorBlock works really well and will automatically skip those bits for you (assuming someone else already put in the effort to mark the sponsored content).

        Which they usually already have. I’m surprised how quickly even small channels get sponsor blocked. It makes me kind of sad because I wanna contribute too, but it’s hard to find video that haven’t been edited
