    My Android is my primary device so I don’t get the alt text. Also I feel like I’m letting you down, because so many times I will watch a video from the preview as I just want to watch the video silently and the only way to do that on mobile without messing with the whole systems volumes controls is the previews. 🥹

      Jumping in:

      My Android is my primary device so I don’t get the alt text.

      Use a YT fork, you can customize it to some of your liking; Some come with SponsorBlock enabled right out of the box.

      Yeah, I just click on video to check titles, unless you copy and paste yt url then go to a front-end website.

      Or Louis Rossmann yt fork…
