And yet the quality of that channel is absolutely excellent, and the polar opposite of what the thumbnail clickbait suggests. I'd say it's on the same level of the Admiral Cloudberg blog actually.
And to be clear I completely agree with your reaction to the clickbait. If I didn't already know the channel I would probably avoid the videos too. And I've seen this happen with other channels. It seems to be an unfortunate effect of the current youtube "meta".

- wkat4242 2y agoHm ok, I've never seen it. It has appeared for me before but the clickbaity titles and images put me off. Perhaps it works to game the youtube system but it certainly doesn't to get my interest. But I don't have much patience for videos anyway. I prefer long reads.
