Description

Adds a "Use DeArrow Casual Mode" toggle to the SponsorBlock settings section.
The toggle is only visible when DeArrow titles or thumbnails are enabled.

In Casual mode, original titles that the community has upvoted are preserved.
If no well-voted original exists, the best custom DeArrow title is used as a
fallback. In Classic mode (default), behaviour is completely unchanged.

Files changed:

• src/renderer/store/modules/settings.js — new deArrowCasualMode boolean setting (default: false)
• src/renderer/helpers/sponsorblock.js — appends ?fetchAll=true to the branding request when casual mode is on, so upvoted original titles are included in the response
• src/renderer/components/ft-list-video/ft-list-video.js — new selectDeArrowTitle method handles mode-aware title selection
• src/renderer/components/SponsorBlockSettings.vue — new conditional toggle in the UI
• static/locales/en-US.yaml — two new localization keys

Screenshots

Before (DeArrow disabled — Casual Mode toggle hidden):

After (DeArrow titles enabled — Casual Mode toggle appears):

Testing

1. Go to Settings → SponsorBlock
2. Enable "Use DeArrow Video Titles" or "Use DeArrow for thumbnails"
3. Verify the "Use DeArrow Casual Mode" toggle appears
4. Disable both DeArrow options — verify the toggle disappears
5. Re-enable DeArrow titles, turn on Casual Mode, browse the home/subscription feed
6. Verify original titles are shown where the community has upvoted them
7. Turn off Casual Mode — verify custom DeArrow titles are shown instead
8. Restart the app — verify the Casual Mode setting persists

@nancysangani Please stop spam pinging, that's the second time already (trying to hide what you did by deleting your comment really isn't helping your case), your pull request has been open for less than a day. Additionally you already got close to violating the no AI or LLM policy by requesting a GitHub Copilot review. So if you would like you pull request reviewed at some point, I would recommend not annoying us any further.

Understood, sorry about that. I won’t send further pings.

I also wasn’t aware that having GitHub Copilot enabled could be considered a violation—I didn’t intentionally request a review from it, but I understand the concern and will make sure it’s disabled going forward.

Thanks for your patience.
