DeArrow - Miniaturas e títulos objetivos no YouTub por Ajay (SponsorBlock)

por Taw, há 7 mesesI installed it and am using it to replace a much better addon that is no longer updated.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.

publicado há 6 mesesThe 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.

publicado há 6 diasCan you verify if you are on the latest version of the extension? (2.3.6) - Avaliado em 5 de 5por Chris Hayes, há 14 diasGenuinely 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. - Avaliado em 4 de 5por Usuário 17842467 do Firefox, há um mêsI 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.Resposta do desenvolvedor
publicado há 20 diasIf 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" - Avaliado em 1 de 5por Usuário 19858893 do Firefox, há um mês

publicado há um mêsHi, 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- Avaliado em 5 de 5por Usuário 14902700 do Firefox, há um mêsGreat 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 :(

Reinstalling the extension fixed the issueResposta do desenvolvedor
publicado há um mêsHi, 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 - Avaliado em 1 de 5por bnvnnchgcccc, há 2 meseschanges titles that dont need to be changed at all, and it changes them to a longer much worse version of the same title. the original was already descriptive, useless app, terrible user titles

publicado há um mêsYou can try enabling "casual mode" to keep the funny or interesting titles, or use the "default to original information" button to only see the custom title if you click a button - Avaliado em 5 de 5por Usuário 19218008 do Firefox, há 2 meses
- Avaliado em 3 de 5por Aleksandersen, há 2 mesesInteresting concept, but the extension frequently breaks YouTube — images and features fail to load every few weeks until you disable this extension.

publicado há 2 mesesAt the moment, sometimes the first recommended video will be blank. There is an update to fix this, but it is currently still being reviewed by Mozilla.

- Avaliado em 1 de 5por Jorb, há 3 mesesUsed to be amazing. Now with the latest Youtube changes it's very inconsistent. Most videos that use to have custom names and thumbnails no longer do, and only a few here and there still have them. The majority of videos also don't even allow you to submit new titles anymore, the textboxes to do so are absent.

publicado há 3 mesesHi, is this still happening to you? Could you send a screenshot to dev @ ajay.app - Avaliado em 1 de 5por Samg381, há 3 mesesThe payment scheme is as deceptive and scummy as the clickbait this extension seeks to fix. I have never seen something as bizarre as this.

publicado há 3 mesesDeArrow is a paid extension, but I understand not everyone wants to or can pay, so you can use it for free by clicking "I don't want to pay" or sending me an email for a free key
Or even using a good ole keygen website lol https://ashleygraves.eu/dearrow/
