    To me it wrings more of "people who want to know before they waste 20 minutes whether this video is clickbait, just actually false, rightwing conspiracy theories, or has some massive editing flaw that makes the video pointless.

      For that, I prefer DeArrow. Gets you community sourced, informative titles for videos (and removes clickbait thumbnails as well)

        Tbh the removal of clickbait thumbnails made YouTube less enjoyable for me. I don’t really watch those over the top clickbait youtubers anyway, so I’ve found that this isn’t too big of a deal.
