Hello @TeamYouTube , I would like to know, why are not the thumbnails of the videos on my channel? What happens is that all my videos had thumbnails, and now they are no longer seen.pic.twitter.com/10DKNkIopT

Hello @TeamYouTube , I would like to know, why are not the thumbnails of the videos on my channel? What happens is that all my videos had thumbnails, and now they are no longer seen.pic.twitter.com/10DKNkIopT
We are running a small experiment where 0.3% of viewers will see an auto-generated thumbnail, instead of your custom thumbnail. We are not removing the ability to create your custom thumbnail, but we hope to gain insights on auto-generated thumbnails for the future.
Why on earth would you do that to creators? You tell us thumbnails matter so much, and now you are going to test on those thumbnails for people who are working hard on them? You have such a disconnect from your creators.
Because they want to improve the platform for users who don't make custom thumbnails. If you made a thousand dollars a month on YouTube and--worse case scenario--100% of the users who saw an auto generated thumbnail didn't watch your video, you would loose 3 dollars in total.
Obviously there are side effects to doing this experiment that could go beyond specific users not watching your videos, but it's still only 0.3% of viewers. I agree YouTube could communicate better, but this shouldn't be a big deal.
.3% on YouTube is equivalent to over 5 million users. . .
So what is your point? 5 million people is still 0.3% of the platform. My point still stands.
