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.

    I love LTT. It’s entertaining, and he shows cool stuff. And you can even learn a thing or two.

    And I am gonna be even more unpopular than you.
    I find Steve from GN to be boring as fuck to watch regularly (though I watch him when I want to see a specific review, like I do with other channels, his content is very good in terms of information), and he resorts to clickbait regularly, even if a different kind of clickbait (that waste of sand thumbnail, if it was LTT, would be criticized forever).

    And more, even if you want to buy something instead of watching for entertainment, you shouldn’t rely on 1 single review anyway, so pretending GN is the be-all-end-all for tech reviews is ridiculous.
