I never knew I need this but now I really need this. I just hope you will add Original vs custom/random thumbnail so we could see the original and the random one.

Of you hover the title, there is a button to swap. You can make it always appear in the options

Total utter garbage! Tried it and Youtube completely DIED on me. Pages were still trying to load even after 5 minutes. Nothing worked, I had to close down all my Youtube tabs and it slowed down Firefox something rotten. I have deleted this utter garbage from add-ons. Do not use.

Edit: the update to fix this has been released

As described in an earlier reply, I am current working on a fix for improved performance on Firefox. I should have it out today or tomorrow :)

Seems to be working. It's by the same dev as Sponsor Block so im keeping it. 👌🏾

This addon most definitely has potential! I find that video's have started buffering... if i click at the video bar on the right I see the video tiles slowly appear. Either way I will keep trying this addon and if the buffering gets bad put it on the sideline and check back on it. Either way 4/5 stars buds! Nice job!

Edit: Thanks for the update! I do understand that it is in a 'Alpha/Beta' stage. I made an account just to give a 'Bug' or 'RFC' or 'Feedback' and once gain thank you for your effort!

Still working out some issues, so I haven't released it yet, but the next update should help fix this by switching how the thumbnails are rendered on the page (By using Image elements instead of Canvas elements)

It's so refreshing to not be bombarded by clickbait thumbnails. Plus, the occasional rewritten video title is nice (though I enjoy the ability to temporarily see the originals). The only issue is that it takes longer to load the new thumbnails, but honestly that's not much of a problem.

Great idea. Though I am surprised that Tom Scott's channel was picked as a demonstration, as he is not a particularly bad offender in this respect, to the point where I personally do not mind having his original thumbnails and titles.

If you're aiming at something clickbaity, yet still informative enough to be worth spending time on redacting, maybe show, I dunno, LegalEagle? TLDR News? Linus Tech Tips? Karl Jobst?

Very recently, Tom Scott and CGP Grey have started going through their entire backlog and changing titles and thumbnails to be more attention grabbing and vague. Channels doing things like this are a heavy inspiration for this extension.

It's not just the Linus Tech Tips or the Mr Beasts of the world doing algorithm optimized titles and thumbnails now. Even really great channels like Tom Scott, CGP Grey, and Kurzgesagt are falling for the trap now.

And I don't blame them! That's what's needed to survive on the platform these days. It's a race to the bottom.

DeArrow hopes to solve this. DeArrow puts everyone on a level playing field. There is no race to the bottom since no one is allowed to be algorithmically optimized. It pauses the race, and let's the true best videos rise to the top.

Great idea, but it slows down way too much. Especially on watch history page. It consumes my entire bandwith looking at task managers networking tab, above 800 mbps

Edit: The update I talked about is now released, so this should be fixed :)

Thanks!

So, there are two ways thumbnail generation works. One is via asking the server for one, and one is via downloading part of the video locally. Right now it tries both and stops when the first one loads.

Next update, I am going to change that behavior to always only use the server one, and only try local generation if the server hasn't responded in some time.

I also noticed a bug where sometimes local generation downloads the video multiple times, which might be amplifying the issue.

So, hopefully this issue will be fixed in the next update and you can try again then! thanks!
