sɣur RaphGL, 10 hónapjaAwesome, 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.

- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 19567959, 20 napjaI love dearrow, it's just so great how everyone contributes to help making youtube a better place.

Edit: "When someone spams my email..." 4 days went by with no response, then I gave some information I thought would be useful and thought I had found the issue, to which I closed my issue post on your github page. 6 full days went by until the issue popped up again, where I reopened the issue. I mentioned something I noticed when moving the tab/window playing a YT video and 3 more full days went by without a word. That's spam to you? You've got a very skewed definition of the word "spam" if that's how you think...Tiririt n ineflayen

I am always happy to help people who are respectful - Yettwasezmel 2 ɣef 5sɣur Taw, egy hónapjaI installed it and am using it to replace a much better addon that is no longer updated. I only care about two features: changing the case of titles and replacing thumbnails with video frames.
I have a couple problems with DeArrow:
Similar to SponsorBlock, the crowdsourced nature of it makes it very unreliable. There are many cases of overly opinionated user submissions that conflict with the original material in one way or another.
There are settings to remove the crowdsource functionality and make it work the way I described above, but getting it to do that wasn't very easy and required some hoops to be jumped through.
The much bigger set of hoops is the process of getting to use the addon. You cannot use the addon for free, and the description is misleading.
To get access you need to first click a button to decline paying, then you need to apply for free access, you do not get free access immediately, so you have to start your short free trial. My trial expired before I was granted free access. I was very tempted to uninstall the plugin at every step of this way, and the experience means I will never donate.
I understand the desire to make money off this, but this attitude sucks when it actively and very successfully disrupts the usability of the tool. I am not recommending it to other people. Will drop it if I ever make my own addon to replace the old clickbait remover, or find an alternative.
Maybe this is petty and vindictive, but I'm so tired of all the bullshit and lack of groovy attitudes.Tiririt n ineflayen
yeffeɣ-d deg 10 napjaThe goal is to make an add-on that anyone can use for free if they want to, instead of paywalling it. Anyone can request free access to use DeArrow for free, no questions asked, because I think that's the right thing to do.
At the same time, people buying DeArrow is how I pay my rent, so I appreciate anyone who chooses to do so. - Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Josy, egy hónapja
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur den, egy hónapjaThis makes YouTube SO MUCH BETTER! Videos I would never click on are made way more interesting now that I can actually see what they're about. Every YouTuber feels the need to oversimplify their thumbnails and titles to make it more "clickable", but for some of us, that has the opposite effect. Thank you for making the YouTube experience better.
- Yettwasezmel 4 ɣef 5sɣur LongRamen, egy hónapjaplease update it to work with the recent new youtube layout! the button to show/hide the replaced thumbnail/title now moves around when you try to click it, very annoying
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 19494893, 2 hónapjaThis is an essential extension if you are an avid Youtube user.
- Yettwasezmel 5 ɣef 5sɣur Aseqdac Firefox 14230878, 3 hónapjaNowadays I consider this a mandatory extension. YouTube without it is painful to my eyes. Thank you to Ajay for making this extension, it is a gem.

yeffeɣ-d deg 3 hónapjaEdit: The update is now published!
YouTube changed the layout causing the extension to replace thumbnails with blank spaces. I have fixed this in 2.1.7, but unfortunately Firefox is slow at reviewing updates.
This will take a few days to appear on the extension store. On Firefox, it could take up to 14 days, but you can switch to the beta version by clicking "FirefoxSignedInstaller" in the release (https://github.com/ajayyy/DeArrow/releases/tag/2.1.7). Make sure to backup your data and only have one extension enabled at once if you choose to do that.
While you wait on the old version, you can disable thumbnail replacements to see the original thumbnail instead of a blank space.Tiririt n ineflayen
