I hate YouTube thumbnails.
It’s another thing we can blame greed and consumerism for.
People only make thumbnails this way because ‘the data’ has shown it’s what makes channels more money.
You may want to install DeArrow. It’s a browser extension that replaces them with an actual frame from the video
No way, that’s real!?
I just tried installing it, and apparently there’s some scummy winrar-esque licensing where we have to pay or ‘re-activate’ it every 6 hours.
I’m so fucking tired of greed and consumerism.
Same. I’ll 100% deal with thumbnails lol. I’m not paying for shit lmao.
Why is the thumbnail drawing question marks around U and I being together? Even Dvorak does that.
Because YouTube thumbnails are designed to generate clicks and engagement (including this conversation right here!), not to be correct or informative.
