You can still use sponsorblock and configure it to not skipping sponsor segments if you want, and still enjoying the benefits of automatically skipping useless segments such as intro, outro, subscription reminders, self promotion, recaps, etc.

I used to let some creators through, but it seems like ad sponsors are locking down on creators to fit their message, so I've started blocking everything since it's just useless mush.
