I started to write a script for a video about how clickbait have really damaged the platform, clickbait taking it to the point the make the creators says “it’s okay, we need monetize, we need to catch your attention somehow, this is the only and the good way”, and I need to make some field research gathering some people opinions about it (I going to ask to some people IRL too). So what do you think? Feel free to answer any of the questions below, and add whatever come to your mind, everything it’s appreciated.

  • Do you use youtube mainly?
  • Do you care about clickbait?
  • Did clickbait make you stop seeing some creator?
  • Did you use youtube but clickbait (among other things) made you to stop using it’s platform?
  • Do you think clickbait is the major of the YouTube’s problems?
  • Do you see something good in clickbait among the bad things? Like, which ones?
  • Could we see clickbait as a necessary evil?

Thanks again! Have a nice day.

Edit: format added to the questions.

    I only really care about it when it straight up lies, which I don’t see too often. Had this happen just the other day, though, where the video title and the thumbnail made it seem like it was a new cartoon pilot, but then it was just some dude bitching about some Viziepop show and didn’t even show clips.

    I block channels that do this shit.

    You wanna catch my attention? Just make your thunbnail accurate and colorful, and title the video something descriptive.
