What it does

Replaces YouTube

Unclickbait swaps YouTube's thumbnails for a frame from the middle of each video. No shocked faces or red arrows, just a look at the video itself. YouTube keeps three frames of every video, from about a quarter, half and three quarters of the way through. Unclickbait shows the one from the middle, when the video is well under way. Where YouTube has no frame yet, as with a live stream or a video still processing, you see the uploader'sfrom unclickbait.app
