Yeah totally get it. And to be clear thisis a critique not a rant about how much I hate him or something. I also get that part of it is just the culture of YouTube. People say they hate all the clickbait thumbnails and all that stuff, but it drives engagement which means they make more money, so they’re going to keep doing it unless we stop incentivizing it - clearly it works despite what some of us on forums say!
I imagine he does it because it’s rewarded ultimately. I can’t say I would do differently.
