DeArrow

DeArrow is an open source browser extension for crowdsourcing better titles and
thumbnails on YouTube. The goal is to make titles accurate and reduce
sensationalism. No more arrows, ridiculous faces, and no more clickbait.



"Clickbait" isn't the exception anymore, it's becoming the norm. Many have even
started going through their entire backlog, changing old titles and thumbnails
to be more attention grabbing and vague.

It's no one's fault. It's a system that creates a race to the bottom.

DeArrow hopes to stop this cycle. It's time to return to a more peaceful
experience.

3RD PARTY PORTS

There are currently 30,202 users who have submitted 88,603 titles and 46,837
thumbnails.

Watch a demo below!

Titles can be any arbitrary text. Thumbnails are screenshots from specific
timestamps in the video. These are user submitted and voted on. By default, if
there are no submissions, it will format the original title to the
user-specified format, and set a screenshot from a random timestamp as the
thumbnail. This can be configured in the options to disable formatting, or show
the original thumbnail by default.

Check status.sponsor.ajay.app for server status.

The source code is fully open and the database can be downloaded by anyone. I
want to keep this as open as possible! You can view the docs for the public API
or host a mirror.

Check out how it works.

Come chat with us on Discord or Matrix.
