- Rated 5 out of 5by hehe, 2 years agogods, 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. - Rated 5 out of 5by Artyom, 2 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15221227, 2 years agoI 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.

- Rated 5 out of 5by hamsterwolf, 2 years agoThis is, without a doubt, THE best extension I've ever seen on Firefox. Browsing YouTube is now a pleasant, stress-free experience that no longer makes me feel irritated or angry by moronic thumbnails. I just wish we could toggle it for certain channels since I do enjoy seeing Binging Wish Babish's thumbnails, but that's an extremely small price to pay for the peace of mind this brings.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15695248, 2 years agoI have been dreaming of this addon for years. Ajay Ramachandran is a god among us. Thank you Ajay for all that you do!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17970984, 2 years agoI think this add-on is a great idea, and like many other reviewers, I didn't really know I needed this until I turned it on.
Currently, my only issue is that this app seems to really mess with the initial loading of videos, like it will stutter or not start in the first 10~20 seconds before returning to normal performance.
This will only get better as more people start contributing to the process, but even now, not being exposed 24/7 to clickbait and other means to tug at your attention span makes a world of difference.
Edit: Thank you for the response. It seems thumbnail generation service is back online, and as long as local generation performance can be improved, I think that might be the better long term solution, but I'm not here to tell you how to run the add-on.Developer response
posted 2 years agoThe thumbnail generation service I'm running has gone down to due a storage issue, so it is falling back to local generation, which is probably causing those issues. I'll look into making the local generation work better in the future when outages happen.
