DeArrow - A Browser Extension that removes clickbait titles and thumbnails - Feddit

The creators of SponsorBlock did it again, now we can crowdsource better titles and thumbnails as well. I just tried it with LinusTechTips who is a worst offender when it comes to clickbait and its really great. Compare without DeArrow [https://feddit.de/pictrs/image/9a660213-3ac6-4509-952d-9e577aa974bd.jpeg] and with the extension [https://feddit.de/pictrs/image/90012dd6-dbc0-45f1-b6f6-a60225aa62e7.jpeg]

This extension is free, forever, for anyone who installs it during the beta. Yes, that means there will be a paywall for new users only in the future, but I promise that there will still be a way to for people to get free access. Of course the extension will always remain fully open source, with a publicly downloadable database, just like SponsorBlock.

I'm a bit confused what this means / will mean. A paywall but also still alternative free access?

Where are you quoting this from? I could not find any information about a paywall.

mh, I can't find it anymore either. Pretty sure it was on the website, on the main page. Maybe it changed? Maybe it's now considered t obe out of beta?

Yes, I also found it here. I have asked the developers for clarification.
