SponsorBlock is IMO not that hard to set up, and I haven't even seen YouTube actively fight against its use; the problem is that the sponsor segment timestamps are community-sourced, which means 1) they might not yet be submitted by the time you watch a recently published video and 2) they're often very lazily done (but of course both are better than nothing).
