It wouldn't bother me too much but have a look at the explore tab, it makes the app look so cheap and like a clickhole website.
The content isn't necessarily bad but this and sponsor block will only improve things.
If people wanted what this extension did, YouTubers wouldn’t make thumbnails like this. Unfortunately, it’s what gets clicks, so they’re forced to do it to get engagement. Linus of LTT has lamented the fact that he has to make click bait titles, but it earns the big bucks so he has to do it. That’s how being a YouTuber works.
Just because my monkey brain falls for clickbait doesn't mean that I want it.
The MKBHD thumbnail is a perfect example of this. I really want to know what makes that phone almost perfect because I can't fight my curiosity but when faced with an honest title like the one on the right which states that it's just a review makes me realize that I'm actually not interested in it.
And after clicking on a clickbait video and scrolling through it to check if it actually delivers on it's promises I'm mostly left disappointed and will close it again.
And I can't just ignore all titles that pose a question like this because there are youtubers like technology connections that actually deliver on their titles promise in a thourough way.
maybe I'm a sucker, but I love MKBHD and I don't know if I'm clicking into a Zenfone 10 review video without the clickbait. I'm glad I did and I learned about the phone that is almost perfect in his eyes.
Yeah it's definitely a real thing I don't doubt, it's that YouTube promotes this line of promotion.
tech people get annoyed at the weirdest shit...
