YouTube Thumbnail Tester & Previewer

Test your youtube thumbnail before it costs you clicks

What it does

Most YouTube creators publish thumbnails and hope for the best. YouThumb lets you preview your thumbnail inside the real YouTube feed/search surrounded by actual competitor videos, before you hit publish. See exactly what viewers see. Test blur, grayscale, mobile vs desktop. Run an AI scan that ranks your thumbnail against 5 real competitors and tells you what to fix. Free to use — includes 100 free AI scan tokens on sign-up. No YouTube account needed. Works directly inside YouTube.

I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783
With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
