Given I watch several successful YouTube channels which don't use anything like that clickbait nonsense, in fact channels more successful by far than that one, I call BS on your claim it's somehow required. It's not. It's just lazy and intentionally deceptive.Of course it's click bait, even really good youtube channels like The Rising and Breaking Points have to use click bait titles because of how the youtube algorithm works. Don't hate the player, hate the game (the game being the algorithm). At least it's honest, no lies in it, I've seen worse.
Stop blaming youtube channels for using clickbait titles and thumbnails when it's do that or get zero growth and the algorithm forgets your channel even exists.
Yeah, in this case I can hate the player and the game. They both suck. And I don't like it when people justify it and promote it either. Do better.
