This was an issue at one point with YouTube as well. Heck, it's still an issue, with most thumbnails designed with emoting people, arrows, and words designed to increase click rates.
However, this kind of things _does_ increase click rates for these videos. For a platform designed to get views, is that really a bad thing?

- johndough 9y agoThe users will feel ripped off after they have seen the video, in which case it is already too late.
- tom_mellior 9y agoThe users will feel serially ripped off after they have seen three such videos, in which case it is already too late. Too late to convince them to ever come back to a platform with such an offering.

- soziawa 9y agoIt's still an issue.
