postad för 2 år sedanhey, could you email me at dev @ ajay.app since AMO only allows one reply.
Do you maybe have javascript disabled in your browser? It should work even in that case, but there was an issue like that in the past that looked like that.

- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Lev, för 5 dagar sedanNot sure if it's just on my end, but the extension seemed to stop working with the new update. Everything is selected properly in the preferences page, but I still see the original titles and thumbnails.
Edit: it seems to be formatting the titles once I click into the video but nothing on the home page.Utvecklarens svar
postad för 4 dagar sedanYouTube made another change that cased this. There is a fix in 2.1.8, which is out on the other browsers, but still under review on Firefox (Firefox usually takes longer). You can install the beta while waiting if you would like (Just click "FirefoxSignedInstaller.xpi", and make sure to disable your other version for now) https://github.com/ajayyy/DeArrow/releases/tag/2.1.8 - Betygsatt 5 av 5av Hannibal, för 7 dagar sedanFantastic! Improved titles help inform me what I'm >actually< going to see if I click rather than the sensationalized bunk that has become so common for good & bad channels alike.

postad för 9 dagar sedanEdit: 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. - Betygsatt 5 av 5av SDM, för 10 dagar sedanworked well for a while, then it broke.
Edit; Dev fixed it, add-on works well, not perfect but helps cut down the insanely over embellished nature of YouTube thumbnails/titles.Utvecklarens svar

- Betygsatt 5 av 5av Abdelrahman Mekky, för 12 dagar sedanVery useful,very great thanks for the amazing addon, however it seems a recent update might've caused the thumbnails to not load at all for me, disabling de arrow fixes this not sure if this is a dearrow issue or some conflict somewhere

- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 19110817, för 2 månader sedanA massively over-engineered solution compared to something like Clickbait Remover. Why does this require the Sponsorblock model instead of just giving you semi-random screenshots? Why all this complexity?
I don't think there's any reason other than the developer wishing to justify monetizing crowd-sourced software.
EDIT: response to developer - I would wager that the vast majority of this addon's users don't care about the title change feature (indeed, I quickly disabled it). I also don't see how Clickbait Remover predating Arrow excuses Arrow being over-engineered - if anything, that makes it worse (a simple solution was demonstrated, yet it was decided to build an incredibly convoluted alternative)Utvecklarens svar
postad för 2 månader sedanClickbait remover is a great extension that was made before dearrow. If you prefer that simple approach, it's made for you
The crowdsourcing in dearrow is more about titles than thumbnails, which is something clickbait remover is not able to deal with.
Response to edit: I'm not sure I understand your point. If you don't think crowdsourcing is beneficial to you, you should use the other extension. The whole point of this extension is for the crowdsourcing, so most people using this extension are do have those enabled. - Betygsatt 2 av 5av random user, för 2 månader sedanAwkward semi-paid scheme, especially for a crowdsourced project. That alone makes me not want to contribute since the dev might at an point decide to remove access.
The replaced thumbnails are very hit and miss. Replacing clickbait is one thing, but this extension just want to replace all of them indiscriminatingly, removing useful information. Quite a bit are literally just replaced with blank images or other junk...Utvecklarens svar
postad för 2 månader sedanBy default, most thumbnails are replaced with random screenshots to try to let you get a sense of what the video is like. This can be changed in the settings to show the original thumbnails instead of you prefer them.
All the crowdsourced data is public and under a creative commons license (https://sponsor.ajay.app/database). The code is also fully open source under the GPL. The magic of open source is that anyone can continue the project or fork it to their own desire. - Betygsatt 5 av 5av Bryn, för 2 månader sedan

- Betygsatt 5 av 5av Firefox-användare 19094068, för 2 månader sedanA great addon that de-clickbaits youtube. Only downside is that after using it for some time, you realise that most of what reaches the front page is just slop. I happily paid for DeArrow as it has made the youtube experience much better for filtering good content out of the slop.
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 19092967, för 2 månader sedanAggressively asks for payment despite 99% of its value being derived from the community that contributes the titles/thumbnails __for free__. Imagine if Wikipedia tried to charge a monthly subscription...
Asking for donations is one thing, and you certainly deserve some money for the work you've done here, but there's a difference between politely asking for a donation and blocking somebody's path until they shove you out of the way - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 19001582, för 3 månader sedan
