The Clickbait remover chooses a random thumbnail instead. I rarely go to youtube, but when I do, this makes it more bearable. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/

  In case anyone else initially misinterpreted it like I did: it replaces the thumbnail with a random frame from the video.

    Oh, wow, that sounds amazing. (also, I'm kind of curious in a disgusted way about what content creators would do if they had to optimize for that metric)

  Interesting, I wasn't sure at first how it was adjusting the title, but it seems like it lower cases it. Interesting demo, but I think you could do better by just aggressively not clicking on videos like that to begin with. I never see that style of click bait anymore, as long as I'm logged in.

    Even high-quality, reputable channels use the weird "strong facial expression" style of thumbnail.
