Dear Developer, As part of our ongoing efforts to improve the extension ecosystem, we are updating our Affiliate Ads Policy to further clarify how affiliate links, codes, and cookies can be used in Chrome extensions. What’s Changing? The updated policy ensures that affiliate links are only included when they provide a direct and transparent benefit to users. This means that extensions cannot inject affiliate links when no actual value—such as a discount, cashback, or relevant offer—is being provided. Under this policy, an extension must not add, modify, or replace affiliate links unless: • The affiliate program is clearly disclosed on the Chrome Web Store listing, in the user interface, and before installation. • User action is required before any affiliate link, code, or cookie is applied. • The affiliate link is tied to a direct benefit for the user at that moment. For example, an extension that finds and applies coupon codes must not insert an affiliate link if no coupon or discount is found. This prevents extensions from monetizing users without delivering a clear value in return.
SponsorBlock extension review: SponsorBlock reeks of elitist, preppy brats—smug, dull-witted jobsworths obsessed with control. What began as a clever concept has spiralled into petty ego wars, where one slip-up—or a few—could shatter your faith in humanity. Now it’s a mess, enforcing a sadistic perfectionist’s rulebook at gunpoint. Don’t dare offer help submitting—you’ll regret it. Scrap the leaderboard feature! Some of the worst offenders I’m targeting in my review are plastered on it, unhinged lunatics treating this thing like some twisted game of popularity. They are making the app dead! This is aimed at the admins and mods, the behind-the-scenes politicking that poisons this once great app. The summit segment practically shrieks, 'READ THE GUIDELINES!!!'—a tiny, glaring peek into how much they truly value your help. Don't give them your time, best avoided.
Two DeArrow modes Classic mode: Titles are replaced with standardized formats based on the guidelines on all videos where a crowdsourced title exists. Casual mode: Keep original titles when they describe the video well enough and are clever or funny. Choose which categories of titles you want to see. You'll be able to vote if a title fits into a category or not.
