The settings are not nearly granular enough for me to customize this experience to my liking, and the style that the community has decided to adopt is not *descriptive* it's *verbose*. Concise language, emotive language, evocative language are not bad things, inherently. Videos from some of my favorite channels were unrecognizable and significantly worse.
I wish I could say this could be solved by creating a "blacklist" mode, where only specific, named, egregious channels I select would have their titles and thumbnails replaced, but I installed this in order to scrub the obnoxious titles and thumbnails that Veritasium loves to use, but the community suggested replacement for one Veritasium video was so much *less* clear and descriptive than the original that it completely defeats the point.
I wasn't bothered by the request for payment, since it took me significantly less than the six hours of the free trial to realize this wasn't for me. Additionally, unlike some people, I recognize FOSS development is labor and deserves to be paid. I just wish people realized that also applied to those who script, film, edit, and design thumbnails for videos on Youtube.

发布于 5 个月前Sorry about that, unfortunately the titles aren't for everyone and can be too descriptive sometimes for sure. I suggest enabling "Default to Original Video Information"

- 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 20013628, 5 天前No activation button available, only trial for 6 hours. So every 6 hours i have to reactivate it, essentially replacing one annoyance with another.
Yea, I'm never paying for this, would've considered it if it just flat out said it's a paid extension, which it is. - 评分 5 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 18901250, 9 天前
- 评分 1 / 5来自 SleepyLatte, 19 天前Open source and community driven but give me money. Intresting concept, so the money you make, do you give it to people who actually keep this garabge running? Oh no you dont, because you totally did all of the work! Like no one else on this planet was willing to do it for free, just another cancer

- One of the best YouTube extensions out there.
It's up there with Sponsor block and UBlock Origin.
It's very time saving, especially when browsing through your recommendations page (it makes your digest more productive.)
Most of these big tech channel videos are frequently summarized into a small sentence.
I've found it most useful for tech videos (as most custom titles lie here)
The feature where it shows a random screenshot of the video in the thumbnail is amazing, it helps me preview videos that are obviously AI generated.
I love this extension, and I suggest others to contribute to the project by:
buying the product - it's only $1 !!!
donating to the developer.
source thumbnails and titles yourself to help expand the project!
share it with your friends.
the only problem I have with it, is that it isn't popular enough, making custom titles quite rare in normal feeds. - 评分 5 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 18414040, 2 个月前

- 评分 5 / 5来自 Chris Hayes, 3 个月前Genuinely improves my YouTube experience.
Yesterday for some reason it stopped working and was making Firefox hang, so I disabled it. I forgot I did that and was wondering why YouTube suddenly felt a lot more click-bait-y than usual.
I love that thumbnails actually represent how the video looks, and that I no longer see video titles that tell me absolutely nothing about the video.
My $1 has been well worth it. - 评分 4 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 17842467, 3 个月前I don't understand installing it and subsequently leaving a negative review for the fact that it does what it says, or for the $1 dollar payment that you *don't have to pay.* That said, this is often broken and may not always be as useful as you'd think (people like to inject their opinions into the new titles for example; this is often fixed eventually but it's kinda irritating when bad titles stay up). You can just go through the settings to limit or remove title changes, though.
Edit: Re-read what I said, this is a pretty neutral review -- unchanged by your response.开发者回应
发布于 3 个月前If it's still not working for you, try making sure it's not asking for extra permissions. You can go to about:addons, and click the gear icon and click "Check for updates". If there is a popup in the top right asking for permissions to access dearrow.ajay.app (the DeArrow homepage), click "Update" - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 19858893, 3 个月前

发布于 4 个月前Hi, it's not meant to be predatory, and does not promise to be free. It is a paid extension that allows most people to use it for free if they choose- 评分 5 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 14902700, 4 个月前Great extension, can't imagine my life without it now.
But just yesterday it stopped working. First the button to show original video title and thumbnail disappeared and now all titles and thumbnails are original clickbaity ones. Changing any settings in the extension or restarting it doesn't help sadly :(

发布于 4 个月前Hi, this was fixed in version 2.3.4 which has now been reviewed by Mozilla so you should be able to just update
Edit: they made another change, it's fixed in 2.3.4. If you don't want to wait for Mozilla to review it, you can install the beta by clicking "FirefoxSignedInstaller" on https://github.com/ajayyy/DeArrow/releases/tag/2.3.5
