Hmm. Interesting extension. But for me, not being a heavy Youtube consumer, think I prefer to see the original title and clickbait thumbnail so I can avoid the over-the-top clickbaity stuff easier and not waste my time or give them bastards a view.
Unfortuanlty the clickbait is super effective against the mass-audiences. This makes everything else seem less favorable to the algorithm. If a channel wants to get views, they have to join in to get new viewers or they will get burried by the allgorithum. For full time YouTube's that is financially devastating.
If people only click on "you won't belive X", then unfortuanlty thats what all the channels have to do. Some do it more subtle than others, but most videos names are some form of clickbait.
I get it why they have to do it, I dont like it, buts that's current reality of how YT works. It does bother alot me is when channels complty lie in their title. There's a difference between "STOP USING LINUX MAJOR EXPLOIT LINUX IS DEAD" and "MAJOR EXPLOIT FOUND IN LINUX"
DeArrow let's us change both to an approiate title and we can choose to watch a video because we are interested in the topic or creator, while the creator makes BS titles in attempt to get enough views from the masses to feed themselves.
