gods, this makes youtube so much nicer. i never realized how much all the sensationalism effected me. upon install, i immediately went through and changed a bunch of my favorite channels thumbnails and titles- it was so much fun! get in on this extension early.

a small note- i'm using this with youtube enhancer, and because of how the submit thumbnail system is integrated, my text color settings on youtube enhancer effect it! which is wonderful! in fact, i'm using four different extensions on youtube, and loading times have only increased by half a second. how lovely.

Finally I can understand what is contained in popular videos without wasting my time. Hope the functionality will be added to Revanced/Newpipe!

Paywall in a crowdsourced and opensource app.

it was really great but it stopped functioning and deleted all text in youtube

When using this add-on, don't forget to enable the feature where your volunteered contributions get sold for a profit. Oh, and don't forget to enable the feature where the developer criticizes you for stating this and tries to rationalize the paywall 😍

e2: my original complaint still stands since the default is forced for every client and there's nothing to stop everyone else from picking a worse thumbnail just because it picks whever you happen to be in the video when you edit it --- and it being a crowdsourced extension means that more often than not the thumbnails are an out of context or blurry mess. not to mention people editorializing the titles or overly sanatizing them.

e: thanks for the reply - guess i was blind due to the extension being tucked away in the 'more extensions' thing. still annoying that its default behaviour though, especially the thumbnail thing. surely picking a random motion blurred time is more detrimental than a potentially clickbaity thumbnail?

forcing titlecase is obnoxious, really wish there was a toggle for that as it kinda steamrolls the grammar/form of other languages just because they happen to use the latin script (!) or stylistic choices for the video title.

also by default it seems to choose your current position in the video as the new thumbnail even if you haven't explicitly picked it - a lot of times results in people removing an okay thumbnail and it getting replaced with motionblurred nonsense.

i know it sounds petty but if these are my only two bits of feedback then it must be good !

I love letting the community crush the stupid trends of marketing like this. I just wish it was more self-explanatory how to use the tool, as I actually needed to watch the how-to video to learn where to click to make my own changes, and even that barely covered the actual details of how it works.

Simple concept with great execution/implementation!

I love this add-on 💜

I like the idea, but thumbnails appear blank half the time (despite selecting show random screenshot in settings + I have fast internet). In the meantime, I'm using clickbait remover add-on for thumbnails and this for titles.

10/10 best extension I've installed into Waterfox!
