Sharing answers to top q's we’re seeing about the thumbnail experiment: – Custom thumbs aren't going away – 99.7% still see the creator's custom thumbnail – A lot of creators use auto-generated thumbnails, this test helps improve them for those using them: https://goo.gl/A7oDmr

The .3% of people who are in the experiment will see auto-generated thumbnails across all of YouTube. So it's not at the channel/creator level, it's the experience for the viewer. Hope that helps clarify, but let us know if you have other questions!

I have Memberships on my account but it has no option to add perks and no one can sign up to be a member either although the membership screen says "Congrats! Your channel is now accepting paid members!" It makes no sense! I can add emojis and stickers

Rather than experimenting on things that will affect the views of videos, perhaps use some of that brainpower to rectify the issues with videos that are educational being demonetised and certain problematic content creators still producing harmful content.

Agree totally with that. I have been demonitised due to Logan Paul controversy. Yet I followed guidelines. Seems one rule for big channels another for the rest

I have a YTchannel with sims videos and I have chosen to create Custom Tumbnails to represent my videos better. Auto-generated thumbnail just shows a random moment of my game including the gaming menu. That's so not inviting.
I know.. cause I never click on those videos myself. -
Doing experiments.. Make it optional for people. It doens't suit every type of channel and/or videos. It doesn't appeal to every YT'er.
Because, I'm not interested at all! - 3 more replies

1) WARN creators when you're experimenting using THEIR content and allow them to opt out. It's their BUSINESS/ART 2) Prove you're focussing on other problems like delisting LGBTQ channels, targeting harrassers and dangerous racism
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
