Does anyone else reflexively recoil from videos with that kind of thumbnail? This could be the best game in the world and that kind of stupid face and hyperbolic text sends it right to my brain's spam folder.
Yeah. There's zero chance I would have clicked this video if it had shown up in my recommendations. I clicked it from the description of the MCDM video, where thumbnails have no power.
absolutely. The hardest thing about using youtube now is the thumbnail cringe and the constant asking you to log in.
I can't imagine using YouTube not logged in. I used my Subscriptions and Watch Later tabs religiously.
For the thumbnails, there's DeArrow. Unfortunately it doesn't seem quite as popular as its creators other crowd-sourced YouTube improving extension: SponsorBlock. (Both are supported by ReVanced, if you're on Android.) But that mainly matters for titles, iirc, with thumbnails being automatically taken from a random frame of the video.
It's a good video. Matt Colville (design director) even recommended it in his video.
I've been following the game for several years. It's got a lot of cool stuff. I've convinced some friends to try it out next week.
Nothing on their website, nothing in their backer kit for retailers, not in distribution. I should not have to go to Reddit to find out if they support flgs or not.
