    I like Steve Mould’s ad reads. He does science content and seems to only advertise products and services he uses, so his ads are mostly straight “this is what I like about the product, what makes it different to alternatives, this is why I use it, this is the stuff they told me to say”

    He’s one of the few YouTubers I actually believe when he says a product is good

      I have no idea what I’ve missed… Till I go to someone’s house and watch raw YouTube and it’s unbearable.

          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.
