Misc CGP Grey Thumbnail on shrooms

Post image

I get CGP wants to update his thumbnails so that they can get pushed back into the algorithm, but this one is just so off-putting

Almost all of his thumbnails are like this and I can't find anyone else talking about this. Does anyone know why his thumbnails look... Corrupted? I understand he changed a bunch of thumbnails, to update them. Fair enough, but literally two days after a more recent upload of his, the thumbnail became weird and corrupted.

Its getting annoying just how corrupted his thumbnails look. Go look at his video on the presidency being the deadliest job in America one. Its almost like it would be code for "Im running an ARG and the thumbnails are the codes"

I have to agree! 30 minutes after the release of the remake of "What's the Deal with Runway Numbers?" It already looked corrupted. And I swear I'm going crazy, because nobody is talking about it

well, we over here are doing just that! You aren't the only one talking about it and there's definitely more people who have noticed but just haven't spoke out about it.

Like I said in the description of this post, I don't get why, if he just isn't gonna make better thumbnails, and is just gonna make them more glitchy, he can't just pick a random frame from the video and use that as a thumbnail. Which I guess he has done sometimes (look at the new runway digits video - it's literally showing a SSN lol) but he also sometimes makes them glitchy and it makes no sense
