TIL about SponsorBlock and DeArrow, just wow!

This line from the website made my day: There are currently 452.934 users who have submitted 17.125.673 skip segments, which have saved a total of 4185 years and 4.84 days of people's lives.

I forgot that periods are used in some places instead of commas for thousands and was wondering how you could get 0.934 of a person

For some reason though its written as 4.84 instead which I thought should be written as 4,84?

Sound about right.

Are spaces used in place of commas in regular casual conversations, too? In Australia, I've only ever seen them used in really formal documents like financial reports, never really anywhere else

I was taught to use spaces for thousands in Canberra

Using commas looks weird here. You never really see anything other than spaces unless it’s foreign

And what do I do with all of that time? Watch more YouTube videos, of course.

DeArrow is an open source browser extension for crowdsourcing better titles and thumbnails on YouTube. The goal is to make titles accurate and reduce sensationalism. No more arrows, ridiculous faces, and no more clickbait.
