YouTube migrated the subscriptions feed to yt-lockup-view-model with yt-thumbnail-view-model inside, so `ytd-thumbnail` no longer matches the feed thumbnails there. Add the new element to the remove_video_thumbnails hide rule and the blur_video_thumbnails filter rule so both features work on /feed/subscriptions again. Caught by the rys-test Playwright harness.

RYS — Remove YouTube Suggestions
A Browser Extension

Free to use with optional premium features.
Why I made it
The attention economy has gotten out of control. YouTube's recommendation algorithm optimizes for the most engaging videos, not the ones you actually want to watch — and it's easy to lose hours to the rabbit hole. This extension lets you cut the noise and use YouTube on your own terms.
