How do I install this on Firefox desktop and Firefox Android? I remember there was an extension for Firefox the last time I checked. Now I cannot find the extension on the Mozilla store.
Isn’t Firefox open source? So isn’t it possible that anyone could see the changes being made even in the nightly versions? I’m not a programmer so forgive my ignorance.
I’ve been trying this for 2 days now. I would say this works. The simple, boring thumbnails do not trick my brain into clicking the video.
if I lose the patch of my YT again
You can export/import:
Settings > Export patches selection
Profile Picture > Settings > ReVanced Extended > Miscellaneous > Import/Export > Export settings
Profile Picture > Settings > Sponsor Block > (scroll all the way down) > Import/Export > (select and copy all the text) > (save this copied text in a text file OR pin it in your keyboard's clipboard) > (Now Go to new app and paste in Import)
I switched from ReVanced Extended (RVX) to ReX using my exported settings. Doing it this way makes switching APKs a breeze.
Alternative Thumbnails is a feature available in the latest ReX patches.
ReX is a fork of the discontinued Revanced Extended project, which in itself was a fork of the official Revanced project.
I applied these patches using the Revanced Extended Manager on YouTube 18.33.37

Here it is in action:
I did know know that DeArrow was a paid service.
DeArrow is a similar extension from the creator of SponsorBlock. It’s suggestions for the title and thumbnail are crowdsourced as opposed to being randomised in the case of ClickBait Remover.
Nice! UnHook removes YouTube recommended videos, related videos, comments, video suggestions wall, homepage recommendations, trending tab & comments
There are some awesome suggestions made by people here. Never heard before extensions that may come handy someday, that would otherwise require third party apps to do the same task.
Also, save the following two posts as well. I didn’t notice similar posts were already created earlier.
Hmm. I need to try containers then.
You should go through the suggestions made on this post. They are great. Maybe, sometime later I’ll create a list and add it to this post’s description later.
Neat. Perfectly adapts to the colour of the website and also works with Dark Reader
Chrome’s Profiles are awesome. I’m looking for similar solutions in Firefox.

It’s made by Mozilla. The same devs that make Firefox. The articles you see below the search bar in the homepage when you first install Firefox are suggested by Pocket.
LOL.
Why specifically her though. Although, the idea is neat. Does it generate random funny names?
and that is saved between sessions.
Thanks for the heads up. I’ll check this feature out.
Nice Suggestion.
DeArrow is a similar extension from the creator of SponsorBlock.
He has highlighted the differences between the two in the description:
Unlike Clickbait Remover, DeArrow’s main purpose is for crowdsourcing better titles and thumbnails
When a crowdsourced title is not available, DeArrow will auto-format it according to your setting, but does it in a more sophisticated way than Clickbait Remover. Instead of only setting all words to lower case, or capitalizing every word, DeArrow supports casing systems such as “Title Case” and “Sentence case”. These will still allow acronyms and proper names to remain capitalized.
When a crowdsourced thumbnail is not available, DeArrow by default shows a screenshot at a random timestamp in the video. Clickbait Remover’s thumbnails use YouTube auto-generated thumbnails, and while they are seemingly random, they are chosen by a machine learning algorithm to favor faces with expressions, and other overstimulating features. DeArrow uses truly random timestamps generated by its own server. DeArrow will also check the SponsorBlock database to ensure the randomized thumbnail is not inside of a sponsor segment.
I’ve not used either of those. I don’t get it. Are these Third Party wrappers for Twitch or extensions that just push Twitch notifications?
Thanks! TIL
