Exactly ^

uBlock Origin and SponsorBlock

What percentage of YouTube users have either?

It must be tiny. And most are using the mobile app anyway.

On mobile I just run Vanced. UBlock and Sponsorblock are solely for my computers. Although I think a lot of people don't want to deal with Vanced and do indeed just use Firefox Mobile. I do recommend Vanced, though.
