Ask HN: Extension to remove annoying YouTube faces
Guys,
Would you use an extension to automatically remove the videos with annoying faces thumbnail ?
- byte0 2y agoI think there is already an extension that does this, even though I can't seem to find it right now. But anyway, why would I give myself the ability to accidentally click on some of these videos? For me, the faces act as a filter to ignore them.

I made this simple chrome-extension, which blocks youtube-thumbnails & shorts. Nothing fancy. Internally, it blocks network requests which are related to thumbnails. Additionally, you can use "Clickbait Remover for YouTube" extension. It simply replaces the thumbnails with a snapshot of the video.
