Pretty damning review.

    To be fair, GN provides excellent Chapter selection to encourage you to skip to whatever you want to know. You don’t have to watch the whole thing if you don’t want to. I’m more annoyed by them using those idiotic clickbait thumbnails. Complete no-go for me.

      Even with the chapters they yammer on in every section. They could say the same thing in half the time and their videos would STILL be long.

        I’ve started consciously avoiding clickbait looking thumbnails for a while. While this addon looks great on paper, I do prefer to support creators who don’t treat me like a kid in a candy store. That being said, I had no idea this addon existed, that’s pretty cool

        Yeah, but then I’d support the practice through my click. I’d rather block 90% of YT content.
