by Firefox user 17294188, 4 years agoMakes Youtube INFINITELY More Pleasant!
No more booty pics or other suggestive material shoved in my face as I browse my home feed. I don't even watch this stuff!!!!!.. on youtube.. :)
No more guessing games over whether the thumbnail is an accurate representation of the video. It rarely actually is.
No more clever title capitalization meant to grab my attention towards keywords like a toddler with something shiny in their face.
Just browse with no minimal pressure and enjoy Youtube for what it USED to be.
Honestly, I need as little 'suggestive' thumbnails in my life as possible reminding me that my browser has a 'private browsing' feature. I'm tired of the dishonest clickbait and clever tricks to make my eyes pop out of their heads. My mind was literally on overload which prompted me to even come here.
As soon as I enabled this addon, I felt the difference. I felt the sense of relief at uniformly titled videos without tailor made thumbnails. And now I don't dread exploring my recommendations.

- Rated 5 out of 5by tiny dragon, 2 months agoI don't personally care for title reformatting, but the thumbnail replacement has been 100% reliable and priceless for years.
I tried DeArrow (what seems to be this extension's current biggest competitor) too, in many different settings configurations, but somehow this one is still better. - Rated 5 out of 5by Розалія, 3 months ago
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 19044547, 5 months agoGood extension, however the video title format function no longer works, which is half of the features this extensions provides. Pls fix
- Rated 4 out of 5by Fyreheart, 7 months agoWorks as advertised but I wish I could whitelist some channels.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Qe, 8 months agoI'm using it with YouTube Anti Translate(I cannot add url, so replace spaces with dots: addons mozilla org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-anti-translate/) and ublock and it freezes me the youtube. I tried it on different browsers. If I disable any of these 3, youtube works again - still if I disable the Anti Translate I have the best results, because if I keep this one with any other I have high CPU usage but hopefully you can find the issue.

- Rated 4 out of 5by steffanossa, 8 months agoMostly works as intended. Some videos are unaffected by the thumbnail change.
An option to remove emojis from video titles would be awesome - Rated 5 out of 5by sysamurai, 8 months ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 18733002, a year agoI love this, but it's not working on all videos on my home. ~1/20 are completely unaffected.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16315383, 2 years agoMost of the time this addon does not work. It doesn't recognise abbreviations or model names of products, so it makes the titles harder to read. DeArrow is much more effective.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18217839, 2 years agoIt does the job and efficiently.
As soon as it's on I compared the result with a private tab (didn't allow the extension on it) and it's obvious the difference it makes in my ability to focus instead of having clickbait bs on my screen.
This is immediately going on all my devices, alongside Ublock and Sponsorblock. - Rated 4 out of 5by It's me, 2 years agoWorks nicely. One suggestion - remove exclamation marks from titles.
