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.
What kind of experiment is that! Some creators put in time and effort to create a proper branded thumbnails...
But I feel like YouTube should know all about branding and consistency and the pride a designer gains in creating those graphics, inlcuding myself. I get paid to design them for others, this is kind of an insult.
Hey Pixels, YouTube has never said they would apply it in every video, maybe that’s a new feature for those creators that do not upload their own thumbnails. Wait and trust them, they know what they are doing. Criticise once it is already in place and fully explained.
Why would anyone trust youtube with their shoebox let alone their own content? Youtube has shown time and time again the depths of their sheer incompetence. Fuck off shill.
Their incompetence could lead them to less profits, so you can trust them as they would never do something that would reduce their profits (and profits involve you and creators staying in the platform).
Right, which is why they constantly screw the sub-box over, do experiments like this without telling anyone, and don't speak to the creators on the platform at all until they piss someone off. Youtube doesn't care about small time creators. Quit shilling.
They have experts in all fields in order to know what they are doing (the experiments are most of the times just to confirm their hypothesis). It is communicated to the creators once the experiments are over and they are ready to implement it and they do the same with viewers.
Also, they don't screw it, if their analysis says that their algorithms generate more views than whatever you think. Then they are right. Creators want more views and YouTube want more views, there is no conflict of interests there, so nothing to worry about.
