Thank-you for your time and contribution. I personally appreciate it greatly.

The alt attribute on YouTube thumbnails is empty. Not sure if this is because it needs to be set on the YouTube side and is empty in my case or if it's something that should/could be set on the Drupal side. For example:

<img src="/sites/default/files/styles/medium/public/video_thumbnails/pwmZ0VB913w.jpg?itok=MVNkETrM" alt="" typeof="foaf:Image">

It would be great if the alt attribute were automatically populated with the title attribute of the video or at least configurable with a field formatter in the entity field and in a view, similar to the D7 version found here: https://www.drupal.org/project/video_embed_field/issues/1926872 →

    Thanks, dshields.
    Be carefull with #14 in case of CKEditor`embedded video: the patch doesn't support this case
    and causes
    ArgumentCountError: Too few arguments to function Drupal\video_embed_field\ProviderPluginBase::renderThumbnail(), 2 passed
    to prevent this add 

    +   $attributes = [];
-   $thumbnail = $provider->renderThumbnail($embed_data['settings']['image_style'], '');
+   $thumbnail = $provider->renderThumbnail($embed_data['settings']['image_style'], '', $attributes);
