It often overcorrects, like not every shitpost really needs a title that sounds like a news article. But for some really clickbaity YouTubers (most) it makes the titles much more usable. The titles are submitted by users, so if the streamer is very small there might be no one to write the titles.
“This 90s Microwave is Better Than Yours” is clickbait sure, but it’s also literally the point of the video. It got corrected to something like “review of the Panasonic yadda yadda from 1996” and like, that’s a less accurate title, guys, it’s not actually a review of old kitchen stuff lol
Yeah, that is annoying. But for the “You won’t BELIEVE what this microwave can do! 🤯🤯🤯” or worse the “This appliance from the 90s is going to REVOLUTIONIZE your kitchen!” at least become something that gives you some idea if you want to watch. Unfortunately some good videos are hidden behind shitty titles I otherwise wouldn’t click.
Not technology connections obviously, their titles are fine.
Also I don’t why so many de-arrow contributors feel the need to use the word “explaining” at the start of every title. Like “how VR has changed over the years is fine”, you don’t need to make it “Explaining how VR has changed over the years”.
Is dearrow actually good? Does it work for small streamers?

Tech Connections is a great example imo

It’s been a while since I watched his videos, looks like my day off is planed out.
You can exclude channels from dearrow, do that with him

I absolutely prefer the latter, adding “Explaining” makes it a readable title for me that I won’t skip over.

It really only serves to perpetuate the behaviour you’re trying to avoid cuz to the creator there’s still views coming in.
Just my two cents.
