Is dearrow actually good? Does it work for small streamers?

[–] thomasdouwes@sopuli.xyz 54 points 1 year ago (11 children)

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.

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".

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