Download Clickbait Remover for Youtube for Firefox. Replaces thumbnails and modifies titles of videos on youtube.com and m.youtube.com
I hate the current YouTube thumbnail meta. I found this extension and it just takes a frame from the content of the video and displays that. I believe that is fair and more representative of the video. I have been using this extension for a while and I find myself paying more attention to the names of creator and then considering if I want to watch the video; rather than being enticed by some intentionally inflammatory image.
I find it just make YouTube more enjoy in combination with Ublock Origin and YouTube Search Fixer.
Just wanted to share this extension with any Hexbears who aren't liking YouTube's thumbnail arms race of increasingly distracting images. I didn't know if I should have put this in c/videos or c/technology. I rolled a D6 and odds was c/videos and evens c/technology. I rolled a two.
I do not understand this - I use clickbait thumbnails as a yardstick, for filtering. How bad is your thumbnail game? The progress of a channel like LinusTechTips can be tied directly to how fast their thumbnails descended into clickbait dogshit. All the good channels don't have clickbait thumbnails.
Thanks for this! Hopefully it takes care of my "worms in genital area" problem.
you might want to see a doc for that
It's a reference to this btw: https://hexbear.net/post/1608481
