    I can’t imagine using YouTube not logged in. I used my Subscriptions and Watch Later tabs religiously.

    For the thumbnails, there’s DeArrow. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem quite as popular as its creators other crowd-sourced YouTube improving extension: SponsorBlock. (Both are supported by ReVanced, if you’re on Android.) But that mainly matters for titles, iirc, with thumbnails being automatically taken from a random frame of the video.

        I’m not super sure about a fire stick, but isn’t it Android-based? So you should in theory be able to run ReVanced on it?

          amazon locks it down to their app store and its a bit harder to manually mess around with although I have not really bothered. its a convenience thing for not really important things and it was a super cheap impulse buy from years back. I check the app store for stuff but they really just have corpo crap by and large.
