Which thumbnail and title combination do you think is best?

[hallow osprey]

I made a followup video to my first video about turning a typewriter into a computer, and the click-through rate isn't great. I've got a few ideas for titles, and a few thumbnails, but I'm not sure which to use.

Title ideas:
My Linux typewriter prints masterpieces (worried this one might be too clickbaity)
I upgraded my Linux typewriter
Printing out ASCII art using my Raspberry Pi typewriter

Thumbnails:
Blurred picture of ASCII art with question mark - Feels pretty enticing but it might be hard to tell what it is
Unblurred picture - Gives it all away in the thumbnail but is way more obvious
Blurred picture of painting with question mark - Feels pretty eye-catching, but might be a bit dishonest since the typewriter doesn't print in color.

I've decided to go with the unedited photo as the thumbnail since that seems to get the most clicks but I feel like the title is still lacking. Right now it's "I upgraded my Linux typewriter", which actually outperformed "My typewriter prints masterpieces" lol, guess I was sorta right? Any advice would be appreciated!

None of these titles are appealing. your "I upgraded" title is easily the best, but they're all still very unappealing. There's nothing wrong with clickbait, by the way, but I think you're focusing on something no one cares about--"printing masterpieces."

I would focus instead on the words those articles used. "Old typwriter" "Computer Terminal" "Converting an 80s typewriter" "Modern hardware" etc etc

re: the thumbnail, yeah all of them are terrible. They are unreadable, ugly, and unclickable. I would recommend a much further back shot. More context for what I'm seeing. Maybe take something like this but push the laptop near the typewriter and get them both clearly in frame.

Thanks for the advice! I updated it to this before seeing your message, but I'll try out a bit of a wider shot.
As for the title, what do you think of these? I'm still having trouble coming up with something eye-catching, and distinct from my first video:
I upgraded my 80s typewriter so it can print art
My modernized 80s typewriter can make art (or "can print the Mona Lisa"?)
Making art with my modernized 80s typewriter

My 80s Typewriter Now Prints Art

Do you think these are better? I feel like I should use the one taken from a higher angle

[hushed hemlock]

I'd close up that typewriter, bring them closer together still and angle them a bit, and take a much lower angle photo focused on the typewriter, and then consider using text or arrows if necessary to drive first impression attention and interest to the title for further detail

Problem with closing it up is that it interferes with the wires I've plugged into it, but I should be able to figure something out. Should I just add one or two keywords to the thumbnail? Like "Linux Terminal Typewriter"? I was trying to add text before but I was having trouble thinking of anything that doesn't just repeat part of the title but I guess that's sorta the point

[hallow osprey]

I took a few new thumbnails, I’m not sure how I feel about my laptop taking that much space up in the thumbnail but I feel like it could work

I might need to retake the first one because of the wrinkles in the sheet I was using as a backdrop lol
