I actually mostly love Sponsor Block for its non-sponsor things. Stuff like cutting out intro animations, cutting long silences in recorded streams, skipping "interaction reminders" ("don't forget to like and subscribe"), and occasionally jumping straight to the music in music videos.
I just drop channels that do that nonsense.
I'm okay with a 10-20s sponsor mention at the start or end, but some of them get long (like 1min+) or are right in the middle. Likewise, a quick 3s "like and subscribe" nod at the end is fine, just annoying in the middle.
If a channel is annoying its viewers, I know to avoid it because the content is also likely mediocre. If they truly care about the content, they'll keep the annoying crap to a minimum.
It has served me pretty well so far.
