Change log:

v3.0, 2025-07-12: Add fix for new youtube update to sidebar vids; remove carousel fallback.
v2.0, 2025-02-12: Add a fallback option for users affected by YouTube's recent code changes that they are no longer providing an_webp animated thumbnail URLs on the homepage. The fall back makes a still image carousel/slideshow of some available screenshots apply to the homepage. At time of writing only some users affected and only the homepage is affected, other pages continue to work with an_webp animated thumbnails.
v1.0, 2023-12-14: Initial release.
