Grinding tech trees

Okay so I recently started playing WoT, I actually have done decently, 1300 WN8 according to Tomato.gg and I got my first T10 yesterday, the Obj 277, but I am STRUGGLING. These lines take insane amounts of time to grind, I mean I have spent an exorbitant amount of time on this game already, even bought a T8 premium to grind credits. However grinding a single t10 takes maybe ~100 hours? And thats not counting the time to grind the credits to buy the tanks.

I guess what I am asking is, how do I stick around? I have REALLY enjoyed playing t10 with non stock components. Facing off against equal tiers feels REALLY good and I love the tanks at T10. However the grind to get a t10 feels really difficult and long. How do you guys do it? I loathe many of these low tier tanks I play, I am currently grinding the STB-1 and the line blows. I am as slow as a heavy but have light tank armor, best I can do is snipe every game like a pussy. I have a 44% wr overall and it sucks, yet my Obj 277 has a 57% wr and its been great.

Someone showed me this this morning

I feel like Wargaming probably bans people for using a service like this? I am unsure but I will be honest, paying someone a few hundred bucks to help out grinding some of these torturous lines isn't out of the question either. Is this kind of service legal?

I really dislike grinding for 100ish hours through the slog of the tech tree line to get to t10 where stuff gets REALLY fun. Am I missing an efficient way to get to T10?
