Sponsorblock go brrr
Wonder why the mattress folks have ads on a ton of the podcasts I listen to but it doesn’t show up on yt much. You’d think a mattress ad would want a visual medium to display some features.
Sponsor Block is one of the essential YouTube plugins. Thanks to that I don’t know half of these companies.
I love sponsor block, it works pretty much flawlessly apart from when YouTube recommends me a video from literally 30 seconds ago, which is surprisingly often that I can now count it on 2 hands as of the last time I got a scarily new video on my feed,
And Dearrow by the same creator.
What’s dearrow? Downsides?
It changes titles and thumbnails to remove clickbait. Seeing the youtube homepage without it is genuinely jarring–everyone is clawing at your attention. “Pick me, pick me!”
There are different options but i have it set so the thumbnail is a random frame from the video. I think titles are ‘normalized’ and sometimes community generated.
It replaces the thumbnail with a more representative frame from the video (voted by users). The ‘arrow’ was in reference to a trend where people would put a big red arrow pointed at some shit as clickbait. This is meant to stop clickbait
Thanks, downloaded and bought it. Happy to pay for good software.
This was put together by someone who doesn’t watch any sports channels. Completely missing all the sports betting sponsors like Fanduel and Underdog.
where’s Ground News (yes i listen to boomer news commentary on youtube)
And I have never ever used one of those services.
Got a set of Raycon headphones, they’re fine but nothing special
Dankpods heavily criticized them.
I mean sure they arent good by any measure but for 70$ and after 4 years of near daily use in a shop with grinders and paint they’ve done what I needed them to, no complaints just no real complement either
Missing Nebula
Nebula is the youtubers advertising for their own platform. It’s like “like and subscribe” or “subscribe to my patreon”.
They are right anyway.
I’m missing Betterhelp, that one really expensive safety razor, and Bambulab for makers.
PCBWay, the Raid Shadowlegends of electrical engineering projects
Hensson. It is a very good razor, just double the price of others
That’s the one!
You missed Factor.
And AG1 and skillshare
Skillshare is there, next to Hello Fresh.
Oops. So used to skipping them I guess.
I’m proud to say that I block so many ads, this is the first time I’m seeing most of these names.
These sponsors are more and more being baked in the video themselves and not part of the system youtube use. That’s why I use sponsorblock to automatically skip the portions of the sponsors.
I’d love to see the YouTube analytics of a handful of really popular videos that have embedded sponsors. Even before the “jump ahead” feature, there must be a massive drop-off of people who just skip five or ten seconds ahead until the sponsor isn’t showing again.
Morgan & Morgan have been showing up recently

I mean, their advertising obviously worked. We all recognize those names even though more than half barely even do sponsorships anymore or not at all. Instead of making commercials look like memes they just flooded the internet and let us make the memes for them.
Füm?
I can’t say that without it rhyming with “cum”
I know it’s got the umlaut, but… yknow… cmon.
