Guidelines

Problem Description

DeArrow replaces all thumbnails, but often the auto-generated thumbnails are less descriptive than the original, creator-set thumbnails.

Proposed Solution

Add a checkbox in the settings to require > 0 votes instead of >= 0 votes.

Alternatives Considered

We could let the user choose the minimum amount of votes required, but it seems from a cursory inspection of the data that even > 0 makes a big difference and so the purpose is probably served with this simpler setting.

Also, maybe the DeArrow API lets us distinguish between user supplied and randomly auto-generated thumbnails? In that case we could have a setting "only use user provided thumbnails" or "do not use randomly generated thumbnails".

Issue Labels

new optional setting, improvement to existing feature

Additional Information

I see no issue with DeArrow titles, where all of them seem user created and reasonably high quality. However many thumbnails seem autogenerated and low quality. This issue is therefore only about the thumbnails.

There is some discussion about the threshold (for a related, but different, problem with titles) in #3696 (comment).

@efb4f5ff-1298-471a-8973-3d47447115dc thank you for your response, but I'm not sure what you're saying. The PR you linked sets the threshold to >= 0, and I'm asking for an option to set it to > 0. Unverified suggestions are -, but I would also like to ignore ==0 because these are often low quality.

Are you saying this would not make sense? Or that it is not necessary?

It does not make sense because we believe following what SP does by default
