But this will make me stop clicking on 6 different videos before I find one I like... Where's the fun in that?

clickbait no more

Good thing I can already use uBlock to remove the jumpscare that is "verified badges."

nice, good to see an adblocker for clickbaits

Maybe a feature request, but is there an addon that just blocks videos with shitty thumbnails or all caps? Might make the front page almost presentable.

If this extension could just hide those videos as an option, or at least flag them it might make browsing better.

funny. if the creator used the right side for the xenphone I might click on it.

I think i'm okay with NewPipeXSponsorBlock or Freetube, but for straight up YouTube, this is good stuff.

Just like sponsor block this is only going to improve with time. Hopefully it gets integrated into revanced as well
