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.
