    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.
