Sponsor Block Addon does it fine.
However I have bigger complains for my Firefox cannot handle most videos anymore. Affected are those with many ads. It starts with a still image and if I don't quit the video within 10 seconds, my desktop environment crashes, bouncing me back to the login screen. 💩
The blog talks about how this changes is also breaking sponsorblock

I'm really curious if they can make video injection of ads cost effective.
It feels like mangeling video streams into one, potentially re-encoding the video as they go... sounds expensive
