~~⚠️ De-clickbait-ify the youtube titles or your post will be removed!~~

~~Floatplane titles are perfectly fine.~~

~~LTT/LMG community. Brought to you by ******... Actually, no, not this time. This time it's brought to you by Lemmy, the open communities and free and open source software!~~

~~If you post videos from Youtube/LTT, please please un-clickbait the titles. (You can use the title from https://nitter.net/LTTtranslator/ but it doesn't seem to have been updated in quite some while...)~~

You're completely right, clickbait is pointless in a space dedicated to the channel in question (and just sucks in general!). As far as LTT goes, the wood one wasn't too bad so I didn't think to change the suggested title.

They're way better about titles on Floatplane (for, presumably, the same reason you outlined). "WATCH OUT Power Supply Makers! – LTT Labs Update" becomes "Labs Update - Power Supply Tester, Markbench, Metal 3D Printing", for example.

I only sub occasionally because I block ads on YouTube, and like to throw something in the pot time and again. I get the aversion to plastic, shame they don't take anything else.
