I mean, I get it. For bingewatching to be effective such option must exist. But I just can't imagine to skip Star Trek intros. It's part of the anticipation, the joy, the ritual. What about you? Do you skip intros?

I was just complaining that ds9 has a 90+ second intro.. it's just too much
It’s a snooze-fest! Slow panning shots for 75 seconds until the wormhole opens briefly. Low-tempo, gentle music. You ride a slow moving elevator to arrive at the show’s content matter.
SPACE . . .

Just Enterprise. Man I still hate that intro.
Really? But it’s been a long road gettin from there to here….
I love it.
It's absolutely NOT Star Trek, and whoever decided that it would match a series of Star Trek is a moron...but for a standard sci-fi show it's a good song choice.
I tried Enterprise back when it came out and I was out after a couple episides. I just couldn't do it
Oh, Enterprise is pretty poor. There were some solid ideas, but at the time it was just too big a departure from Star Trek for it to be taken seriously.
Now, if Enterprise were the lead-up to First Contact, the intro would make sense as it would be an early prequel to everything...
