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.
Available for pretty much every browser.
A command that can be used on a Linux machine if you're running Gnome to delete the oldest image and movie thumbnails in your desktop's cache to reclaim disk space. I run this command once a month as a cronjob.
find ~/.thumbnails -type f -atime +7 -exec rm {} \;
