DeBait – Real YouTube Thumbnails, Not Clickbait ავტორი nnx0r

DeBait swaps clickbait YouTube thumbnails for the real first frame of each video, so your feed shows what videos are actually about — not the misleading bait.

It works automatically the moment you install it. No popup, no account, no settings.

• Replaces thumbnails on the home feed, search, sidebar and channel pages
• Works on both regular videos and Shorts
• Restores the original automatically when no real frame is available
• Lightweight (~3 kB) and private: no tracking, no accounts, no extra requests

DeBait only needs access to YouTube and changes thumbnails at the network layer, so the clickbait image is never even downloaded.
