  6. Maybe, there should be a new #browserExtension like #SponsorBlock, #DeArrow, #CaptainFact, and #tournesol, to which people can upload their videos without #AI filters if they are affected by #YouTube's AI filters. Projects like #Piped and #Invidious could natively support this and directly play the non-AI impacted videos.

  10. CW: anecdote wrt the algorithm - tools

    Here are the tools I use, if anyone's interested.

    #DeArrow to browse my YouTube subscriptions (lets me know what to expect without loading the video)

    wget can download simple videos on the web

    #streamlink is helpful with .m3u8 streams (twitch is the big example; there are others)

    #yt-dlp can do just about anything else. I add these flags to keep subtitles and avoid 4k:
    yt-dlp --embed-subs -f "bestvideo[height<=1080]+bestaudio"

    I call those in a loop between letting my laptop sleep:
    rtcwake --date "01:00" -m mem && download loop && systemctl suspend

    GUI tools also exist. E.g. youtube-viewer, youtube-desktop, plus all the front-end options around invidious. Personally I prefer the ritual of running command line tools, but do your own research.

  11. @christophe J'ai pas de réponse directe, mais pour améliorer votre #UX sur #YouTube, il y a #SponsorBlocksponsor.ajay.app qui permet de passer automatiquement certaines portions de vidéo (promo, intro, etc.) et #DeArrowdearrow.ajay.app qui permet de remplacer les aperçus et les titres putaclics des vidéos (en plus de #uBlock Origin pour bloquer les pubs évidemment).

    Sinon, #FreeTubefreetubeapp.io rassemble tout en un (et avec mode audio possible, plus #écolo).

  12. is it weird that i am clicking and watching #youtube videos that i wouldn't have clicked when using #dearrow since i know what the video is about instead of exaggerated #clickbait

  13. Using #DeArrow @sponsorblock taught me that lots of youtubers DON'T use clickbait. It is possible to have a normal title in the video.

  14. Loving the desktop app. They have now implemented playlists and which replaces clickbaity thumbnails and titles with more truthful ones.

    Highly recommend it if you are looking for a mindful and distraction-free YouTube experience.

  15. Just purchases Dearrow from @sponsorblock . .

    This extension replaces clickbait titles and thumbnails of YouTube with crowd sourced, more accurate ones.

    Since I love SponsorBlock extension I wanted to give this a shot, donated a dollar to check it out.

    HOLY SHITSNACKS THIS WORKS QUITE NICELY!

    It's available on Chrome, Firefox, iOS, Android, Opera, Edge, Safari.. Everywhere!

    #dearrow #youtube #sponsorblock #extension #firefox

  16. ...god, am I glad that I installed #DeArrow in Firefox. It feels like more and more YouTube video titles are just complete horseshit, with only marginal relation to the actual contents of the video, and thumbnails to match.

    If y'all make #YouTube videos for a living: I can understand writing titles that grab people's attention, but PLEASE try and stay truthful and descriptive, okay? Don't MISLEAD people into watching your videos.

    Thank you.

  17. I absolutely love #DeArrow. It replaces clickbaity titles and thumbnails on youtube.

  18. Habe seit einigen Wochen #DeArrow als Firefox-Add-On installiert, was mich durch Community-Einreichungen native Werbeblöcke in YouTube-Videos überspringen lässt. Aber eine Nebenwirkung ist, dass irgendwie die YouTube-Vorschaubilder oft nicht laden. Sehr seltsamer Bug. Hat das noch wer?

    Edit: In den Einstellungen gibt es eine Option für Vorschaubilder-Austauschen, da laden offensichtlich die Alternativen nicht. Einfach aus damit.

  19. @cccfr Ihr wisst das wahrscheinlich schon aber neben #Sponsorblock (blockiert Werbung in Videos) gibt es auch noch #DeArrow vom gleichen Ersteller das Thumpnails und Video Titel crowdsourced und so Clickbait reduziert. Seit neustem ist beides neben den offiziellen Browser Addons auch in #Piped (alternatives Youtube Frontend) integriert! Ich werde in naher Zukunft sicher nicht auf Youtube verzichten können aber damit kann ichs zumindest etwas besser benutzen!

  20. Here's a quick demo of DeArrow support in Piped.

    DeArrow is an extension that allows for video titles and thumbnails to be crowdsourced for better accuracy and less clickbait.

    YouTube has recently introduced features to let creators A/B test video titles/thumbnails to measure the impact on viewership. DeArrow is a great way to take back control of what you watch.

    DeArrow is another extension by the same creators of @sponsorblock.

  21. CW: makes youtube bearable; wie ich youtube ertrage

    Ich hab nen Account und Premium (via "family").

    Dazu hab ich folgende Extensions in den Librewolf installiert:

    dearrow.ajay.app/ (dafür hab ich sogar bezahlt)
    sponsor.ajay.app/
    unhook.app/

    Kein Plan bezüglich YT aufm Smartphone, I am not your customer care agent.

    #youtube #extension #browser #DeShittify #DeArrow #SponsorBlock #Unhook

  22. (On a side-note: I can recommend installing #DeArrow as a plugin to your browser, which automatically turns click-baity titles into something closer to what they are about and also gets rid of #YoutubeFace. Even people with the most important and urgent messages like this one apparently need to play this game in our current attention economy).

  23. Sorry about the click-bait like title and thumbnail. I didn't see that myself (using #Dearrow to filter that stuff out). The presentation is great though and very sober.

  36. Ein Browser Addin das bei YouTube Thumbnails und Titel gegen Anti-Clickbait Dinge austauscht. 🤯

    #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.
