Do you think of making a SponsorBlock report as a doing a Civic Duty ? (lemmy.ml)

Here is my two cents on that question

When I fill out a sponsorblock,
I feel like I have comitted an act of civic duty
I feel pride

I hope others feel that too

I want to ***** on the grave of Ivy Lee and Edward Bernays and sponsorblock lets me symbolically do it.

We are participants in an hyperwar and I hope our side win.

Fellow sponsorblocker,
I don't know who you are,
I don't know where you are
But can I see you and I am proud of you
Fellow sponsorblocker, I salute you O7

To stop the nasty goblins and their stooges
who constantly besiege our minds and try to infect them
##Is our solemn duty
in this digital hyperwar
To protect the innocent from their vile endeavour
to have less and want more

I'd rather pay for a service directly and have that fund the creators and those maintaining the service, without it all being used for profit of the owners (like YouTube premium). That, or have it publicly funded and enough safety nets that people don't need to worry and just make videos for fun. That's just for now, in the future we could go even further beyond that.
