If it's free and open source and it's also software, it can be discussed here. Subcommunity of Technology.

The creators of SponsorBlock did it again, now we can crowdsource better titles and thumbnails as well. I just tried it with LinusTechTips who is a worst offender when it comes to clickbait and its really great.
Compare without DeArrow
and with the extension
Given that SponsorBlock is in Youtube ReVanced, do you think this will be included in ReVanced in the Future?
I've already noticed a couple videos where the corrected title made me more interested in the video than the clickbait title. Hope this extension takes off!
After Mastodon and Lemmy I think need a federated youtube alternative now too. Yes, I know PeerTube exists, I just need it to get a nice boost in attention just like the other got.
This extension is free, forever, for anyone who installs it during the beta. Yes, that means there will be a paywall for new users only in the future, but I promise that there will still be a way to for people to get free access. Of course the extension will always remain fully open source, with a publicly downloadable database, just like SponsorBlock.
I'm a bit confused what this means / will mean. A paywall but also still alternative free access?
Where are you quoting this from? I could not find any information about a paywall.
mh, I can't find it anymore either. Pretty sure it was on the website, on the main or about page. I was on various other pages looking for contribution info too though. Maybe it changed? Maybe it's now considered t obe out of beta?
I'm seeing it right now on the extension's welcoming page right after install
If I still used YT's main front-end, this would've been great.
SponsorBlock has been added to alternative frontends as well, so there is a good chance DeArrow will be ported.
I don't see where I can submit titles on a video page?
For SponsorBlock there's a button in the video player toolbar.
The demo video shows a button on the video description title. But I don't see one (on a video that has no DeArrow data yet).
Are submissions not open yet?
/edit: Since my comment I've seen it on video pages a while later. Dunno if it was a technical issue, delay, account moderation, or video / channel specific or what.
