To solve #1, you could use the Sponsorblock extension; it still works with YT premium. I don't since sponsor segments are skippable and I make a little game about guessing the exact amount of time to skip forward. Some creators are even kind enough to put timecodes there (but that feels like cheating). I don't mind sponsor segments. Multiple unskippable ads in a row that have nothing to do with the topic are infuriating.
