- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 15998822, 2 days agoWeird plug in that doesn't really work until you figure out if the author wants to be paid or not. It's only $1 (I think), and offers the option of just either having a trial or using it for free, but neither of the last options worked.
I'm sure this is a great idea, but I couldn't get it to work to check if I liked it. Just make it paid for or not please, I don't want to have to faff about trying to get it to work. - Rated 5 out of 5by ramiel, 7 days ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Morgoz, 10 days agoWorks great with English content however since it is crowdsourced when it's not popular in certain countries or certain languages it's really hard to find an usage. Still, a great extension for English YouTube videos.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15145534, 12 days agoJust miss a miscellaneous tab (like sponsorblock has) where we can ad other domains to use it (invidious). But works great with youtube.
- Rated 5 out of 5by tanh, 13 days agoYouTube is a steaming pile of crap unfit for human consumption without DeArrow and SponsorBlock (and uBlock Origin).
- Rated 2 out of 5by asid, 16 days agofrustrating. most titles / thumbnails are either verbose / useless or don't change at all. picking titles or thumbnails (both of which you have to do after already clicking on the video) does nothing 90% of the time and reverts after it does work, probably because majority vote matters more than your own, rather than just being the default used.

- Rated 4 out of 5by RaphGL, a month agoAwesome, this and sponsorblock are literally making youtube less of a clickbait hellscape
Only gave 4 stars because it lacks the community sponsorblock has and the UI is a bit finicky, it definitely needs to be improved. Once the community is there, this extension will be much more useful since we can better rely on the voting system and be able to overwrite most videos out there more easily. - Rated 5 out of 5by baller, a month agoAjay my man, made Dearrow 100% free without having to beg via email for russians :heart:

- Rated 5 out of 5by James, 2 months agoA great add-on if you dont want a click bait title and thumbnail
- Rated 4 out of 5by Gaming4, 2 months agoThis is a cool extension, dont find it too useful for the stuff I've curated for my feed though. Could be cool if you could filter out music videos thumbnails, so that you can see the original ones, other than that this works great.
- Rated 1 out of 5by yowidin, 2 months agoMakes YouTube almost unusable: adds a considerable delay to every UI interaction. For example pausing or resuming a video takes 5-20 seconds.
Developer response
posted 2 months agoIt seems like another extension might be conflicting. Could you try disabling other extensions? Maybe another extension is also changing video links. - Rated 1 out of 5by malau, 2 months agoThis extension no longer works with Firefox >133. The popup box that asks you to confirm that you are adhering to the 3 main rules is just a blank black box.
When it used to work - 5 stars
To devs reply. Yes, I understand how it is SUPPOSED to work, because it USED to work in the manner you describe. But now I just get a blank black box where the rules SHOULD beDeveloper response
posted 2 months agoThere are four rules. You have to check off each rule at a time. It only happens on your first submission and every few weeks. - Rated 5 out of 5by Alan, 2 months ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by SRS, 2 months agoIts a good add-on (as expected from Sponsorblock dev), however i believe it relies a bit too much on crowd sourcing
In my opinion, it should use one of those AI websites which summaries a youtube and do it for the titles.
