YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
My favorite aspect of sponsorblock is blocking the incredibly repetitive ubiquitous script that every single channel copies of like, subscribe, ring the notification bell.
This is actually why i don’t like it. Most of my subs do this kinda thing rarely but occasionally. Sponsorblock creates a gap in the video that is more jarring then the 1 second self promotion, wish there was an option to only block self promotions more then 4 seconds long.
I really can't stand requests for likes, subscribes, notification bell at all. I actually hate it more than ads, and have backed out of many a video that didn't happen to have the segment flagged at the beginning.
I'm not at my computer to check, but I'm like 70% sure you can set a minimum segment length for skipping.
