Titles and thumbnails are one unit
A thumbnail that repeats the title wastes half the click. The pair works when the image asks a question the title answers, or the other way around — which is why every idea here ships with overlay text that is deliberately shorter and blunter than the title itself.
Keep overlay text to three words or fewer. On a phone, a thumbnail is roughly the size of a postage stamp; anything longer becomes texture rather than language.
Titles past sixty characters get cut off in most feeds, so the promise has to land in the first few words. The character counts here flag which of your options survive that cut.
