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 :(

Reinstalling the extension fixed the issue

if you don't have the patience to wait a day for the free license to activate... i'm sorry to break it to you, but your brain is completely and thoroughly cooked.

changes 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

Thank you for this and sponsorblock!

Interesting concept, but the extension frequently breaks YouTube — images and features fail to load every few weeks until you disable this extension.

Used 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.

The payment scheme is as deceptive and scummy as the clickbait this extension seeks to fix. I have never seen something as bizarre as this.

This is so great! Thank you for making this and helping fight back against all the attention-grabbing. I love that the thumbnails can be set to just show a random screenshot from the video. It gives me a much better idea of what the video actually is rather than relying on the overly-clickbait-y thumbnails. The search results page feels much calmer (and actually reminds me of the early youtube days).

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.

trying to coax users to donate money, 'wait 12h until we activate it :)' and when you click 'i wanna pay but cant' it works right away.
SCUMMY! WE DONT LIKE PEOPLE LIKE YOU

I've used this extension everyday without noticing its effects, it probably has saved me a ton of time not getting duped by clickbaiters.

I didn't realise I needed this until I saw it as a feature in my Adfree Youtube app on my LG TV. I actually don't mind the arrow thumbnails, but I'm growing to really appreciate (and contribute to) the title swaps. The thumbnail swaps feel too obvious and ugly, but the Titles feel very transparent and get to the heart of what as video is about (this is I think personal preference, I guess I don't mind "sensational" imagery to grab my attention as long as the Title is descriptive) I find I'm both avoiding videos I have no interest in, but also actually finding new creators thanks to their "de-arrowed" video titles. You can re-arrow titles with a single click (I presume this does the same with thumbnails too).

The free activation took me about a day, and honestly now I've started using it think I will contribute, at the least I've already contributed with a few titles of my own. Your license also syncs with your Firefox Sync, which I was surprised about for the free license.

best addon ever made

Unusable garbage

It's not about the price, it's about the hassle. I can use a completely free extension that does the exact same thing and not have to worry about the hassle.
