There should be a warning that displays if you have no-script to temporarily disable it for that page

If you still couldn't get it working, here is a code :)

There is an option to request free access

It does

Also, you can use it for free, just click "I don't want to pay"

Clickbait remover is a great addon too. The description of DeArrow lists the differences between them

Do you maybe have another extension that modifies YouTube titles like "YouTube Anti-Translate" or "Clickbait Remover"?

Sounds like the replacement titles aren't properly loading in. Can you send an email to dev @ ajay.app so I can and help debug the issue?

Potential solutions:

- Uninstall and reinstall
- Try visiting https://sponsor.ajay.app to make sure the domain is not blocked by your network

Response to edit:

The defaults are chosen in the way that I, and many others, like to use the extension. They are on the aggressive side, but that's why I made the extension so customizable. There are numerous options to turn down the aggressiveness, and you can configure all of these options per channel to be able to be aggressive with some channels, but less aggressive with others.

People have different opinions on what they like, I personally like all titles auto formatted and having all thumbnails replaced.

About the license, there will always be a free option, and all license keys are unlimited use, so you can use them on new devices and you can even share it with your friends.

I promise to never remove this, and I wouldn't want to do this anyway, as I want as many people to using DeArrow as possible, as that's how crowdsourced extensions works.

The soft-ish paywall acts as an aggressive donation barrier convincing a few people to donate, but still allowing everyone else to use the extension with all it's features just like anyone else. It is not meant to restrict who is using the extension. Only a certain amount of people need to pay to make it work.

Thanks to the paywall system, I am now earning enough money that I will be able to work on SponsorBlock and DeArrow full time when I graduate school in January and I am very much looking forward to that :)

Original Response:

I think you are misunderstanding some parts of the extension. The things you are talking about are not human submissions, but configurable automatic systems enabled by default.

By default, it auto-formats titles if no user submission exists. These are not submitted by users, but an automatic formatting system. You can change how this auto-formatting works in the options and also disable it.

By default, it shows a random screenshot from the videos from thumbnails if there is no human submission. You can also configure this in settings if you don't like that behavior, or disable thumbnail replacements altogether if that's not your thing.

Lastly, it is not possible for me to "rug-pull", as the code is open source under a copy-left license, and the database is publicly downloadable, and several other people are actively mirroring this data.

Hope that makes things clearer :)

You may have missed the text on the "request free access" prompt, but originally it was supposed to take 3 weeks. 1.2.16 changes the "request free access" time to 3 days instead as that seems like a more reasonable duration, so once you update, you should get access much quicker.

Use the request free access option :)

It is only supposed to be for new users. If you already used it, you are not meant to pay. If this did happen, if yo could click copy debug info and send me the info to dev @ajay.app that could help me try to figure out why that would happen.

For now, please use FsMBU-348de to get back in

It's only validated once when you click redeem. You are free to remove the code. It is not linked to your userID or any submissions. The only use of the stored license key is for you to be able to view it at a later time in the popup and options.

The idea is to have an easy enough free access system to not cause any issues like that, but time will tell how it works out

Edit: the update to fix this has been released

As described in an earlier reply, I am current working on a fix for improved performance on Firefox. I should have it out today or tomorrow :)
