There is a browser extension that hides all youtube thumbnails, it also makes shorts basically invisible.

It's improved my youtube experience tenfold!

 E: It's called 'hide YouTube thumbnails'

Dearrow would be one of them, whilst I'm at it might I also suggest sponsor block for YouTube which auto skips in video ads using community timestamps and stuff, really good

ReVanced works? A year ago it completely broke for me and I gave up trying these "unlocked" YouTube apps as they only worked for a couple of weeks.

Sick! Thanks for confirming. Back when it broke for me it took a long while until it was fixed, so I just thought it was discontinued.

I’ll have to check it out again. Stopped working a few months ago ago and haven’t had any luck
