    I got tired of large thumbnails long ago. For anyone already using Enhancer for Youtube, you can add the following to the custom script section:

    /* Add to Enhancer for YouTube's Custom script section */
    
    ;(function () {
        document.body.appendChild(document.createElement('style')).innerHTML =
            'ytd-rich-grid-row{display:inline-block;width:min-content;}div#contents.ytd-rich-grid-row{margin:0;}' +
            'ytd-rich-item-renderer{width:32rem !important;margin:1rem;}' +
            'ytd-video-meta-block[rich-meta] #metadata-line.ytd-video-meta-block{font-size:1.5rem !important;line-height:initial;}' +
            '#video-title.ytd-rich-grid-media{font-size:1.75rem;line-height:initial;}'
    })()

      Any chance you’ve attempted or figured out how to block “premiering soon” posts? Useless garbage, YouTube is not for scheduling

        not really, but yeah I hate those too, especially channels that schedule a premiere not hours, but X days from now. What’s the point of showing it in my subscriptions tab if I can’t watch it? And by the time I can, the video will already be buried by newer videos.

    There’s a ublock filter you can use to make them small again. I’ll post the code once I get home.

    ! Changing the amount of videos per row
    youtube.com##ytd-rich-grid-renderer:style(--ytd-rich-grid-items-per-row: 6 !important;)
    youtube.com##ytd-rich-grid-renderer:style(--ytd-rich-grid-posts-per-row: 6 !important;)
    
    ! Using full page width for video grids
    youtube.com##ytd-two-column-browse-results-renderer.grid-6-columns:style(width: 100% !important;)
    youtube.com##ytd-two-column-browse-results-renderer.grid:not(.grid-disabled):style(max-width: 100% !important;)
    

    I have it set up for 6 per row but you can change the number to be whatever you want.

    They also threw shorts at the top of the subscription section in the TV app recently. As if anyone wants to watch shorts on their TV. They don’t care though, it pushes shorts which is what they want to push right now.

        This meme can have an entirely different meaning in reply to that comment. I chose to interpret it as the guy is taking a moment to look at his thumbnail before returning to the private discussion, saying “yeah, he’s got a point”.

          I really meant it in an antimeme/literal/sincere sort of way, but was too lazy to remove the top and bottom frames.
