I think i'm okay with NewPipeXSponsorBlock or Freetube, but for straight up YouTube, this is good stuff.

hey that's cool
Maybe a feature request, but is there an addon that just blocks videos with shitty thumbnails or all caps? Might make the front page almost presentable.
If this extension could just hide those videos as an option, or at least flag them it might make browsing better.

awesome! It's available for firefox based browsers!
Thanks for sharing!
Oog yes
Fuck, this is awesome. Great idea!
And then there's that extension that puts Mr. Beast's signature clickbait grin on every thumbnail
Yooo that's so cool! I'm already using SponsorBlock for in-video stuff, uBlock Origin for the around the video stuff, and a Thumbnail remover (can't recall the name rn). But I think this is even better, because just the first or middle frame of a video isn't exactly capturing the essence of that video.

That's a great idea!
Fantastic!
Oh oh I wish this was available for Safari too
Does anyone know how to convert this into a Userscript? I use Userscripts (a Tampermonkey reimplementation for Safari) and I did not get it to work.
