[–] LinkMiguel@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

nice, good to see an adblocker for clickbaits

Oh oh I wish this was available for Safari too

And then there's that extension that puts Mr. Beast's signature clickbait grin on every thumbnail

This feels like, IMHO, trying to put out a forest fire with a single bucket of water. Instead, we should have a platform that does not encourage making titles and thumbnails completely unrelated to the video's content.

That's a great idea!

Yooo that's so cool! I'm already using SponsorBlock for in-video stuff, uBlock Origin for the around the video stuff, and a Thumbnail remover (can't recall the name rn). But I think this is even better, because just the first or middle frame of a video isn't exactly capturing the essence of that video.

Does anyone know how to convert this into a Userscript? I use Userscripts (a Tampermonkey reimplementation for Safari) and I did not get it to work.
