"Skip ad's" YouTube and "Skip Intro" on Netflix take the same amount of effort but I only hate the former.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding the post. I was under the impression that they are talking about intros/ads to other shows on the same service.

Example: I start a brand new show and I’m immediately hit with an ad for another show on the same service, before I can watch the show I actually selected.

Are you taking about previews? Yes, those are ads. The intro to a show that is the same every episode, those aren’t ads, but are skipable.

Yes, the previews. Sorry, I misread.

The intro is the opening sequence of the show. People usually watch that on the first episode, but if you’re binge-watching a show you don’t want to keep seeing the intro over and over again for each episode.
