- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Jakk, 2 jierren lynFantastic, completely non-intrusive. It's nice actually knowing what certain videos are going to be about before clicking them.
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 14425985, 2 jierren lynWorth the dollar. When videos are missing submissions I feel compelled to add one.
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 18493127, 2 jierren lynThis add-on makes Youtube seem so dull.
And that's a good thing.
Only issues I can see is that I keep checking the original titles out of curiosity (which is my own fault) and that the page lagged severely when I tested it on Mr. Beast's channel (which was rather amusing). - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 18100227, 2 jierren lynImmediately my YouTube homepage became much easier to the eye, I'm also way less prone to click on stuff I really wouldn't have clicked otherwise (which I bet is exactly the purpose of this).
I like it so much more, in a sense the thumbnails become a little insipid, which is something one has to unlearn, but overall this extension brings unfathomed peace.
I think that acronyms should remain unchanged, since its easier to comprehend what's the title all about; also looks better, specially on team names and such.
Thank you very much. I'm an unpaid user, so thank you again and will send my grain of sand once I'm able to.
Thanks again. As an avid YouTube user, I really recommend this extension.
Check other extensions such as SponsorBlock, Enchancer for YouTube, Return YouTube Dislike and YouTube Short Block, all of which I use. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Leo7K, 2 jierren lyn

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch kloassie, 2 jierren lynWorks like a charm. I have the free 'version' bc I don't have a credit card (no need) and no paypal (don't trust pp), but when I find a suitable way to donate, I will. Anyways, I'd like an option to personally whitelist channels for showing original thumbnails - eg music channels that continuously show babes as thumbnails, I don't mind those polluting my view :-P

2 jierren lyn pleatstCheck out the settings and "channel allowlist" feature. You can make a custom profile with whatever settings you want for specific subsets of channels. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch schammelam, 2 jierren lyn

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Bee, 2 jierren lynThis makes YouTube an infinitely better user experience! I really appreciate the lack of visual clutter all the loud thumbnails cause especially. It does make my subscriptions & home page load a little more slowly, but that's well worth it in my opinion.
For some channels I'm subscribed to (like crochet/craft channels), I found I missed the thumbnails because those show the finished craft product, thankfully it was easy to whitelist those.
I did also change the default thumbnail replacement from "random" to "auto-generated by YouTube", which led to less awkward half-blink faces in my feed.
Once activated, the extension immediately worked on all my devices where I'm logged in to Firefox, and I was able to re-use the activation code on a shared family device where I am not logged in on my Firefox account. Overall, a great experience and well worth the 1 euro.Antwurd ûntwikkeler
2 jierren lyn pleatst> One minor negative is that in some interfaces (like browsing a channel's videos) the blue logo button doesn't work to view the original title/thumbnail, because it will open the video link instead.
Hmm, maybe that is because of a new YouTube layout. I'll look into it. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Frans, 2 jierren lyn

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch aNkIt9607, 2 jierren lynLoved this one. I recommend to everyone to use this extension to save yourself from clickbats thumbnail
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Caio, 2 jierren lynPaid extension? I am not buying anything!
EDIT: Is it donationware? I will test it, maybe I can make a contribution. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch LolZoide, 2 jierren lyn

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch z-, 2 jierren lynIncredible work by the same creator as SponsorBlock. I feel such a hatred towards clickbait because I know what I'm interested in, and I will click on those videos but I hate it when I feel the rug has been pulled from me (even though my investment may only be a minute). Also, it's difficult to re-find a video when the video isn't just titled what it's about.
Ajay is the person to do this correct. Ignore the 1 star reviews they're by people who don't want to pay $1 (single time donation) even though you can just not pay, but do pay and let this important service have a chance of surviving.
Ajay, you should set up a Patreon or something tho, SponsorBlock has a huge number of users and I really want to see this and that be around long term.Antwurd ûntwikkeler
2 jierren lyn pleatstthanks :)
sponsorblock and dearrow are definitely here for the long term, but the best way I've tried to ensure that is by making sure all submissions are downloadable and archived at https://sponsor.ajay.app/database making sure that the projects can be quickly taken over by another responsible person if something does go wrong
