  Someone always says this like the intention being engagement bait doesn’t make it even worse.

    I don’t think it’s any better, just that it’s part of the standard playbook. Up there with the unnecessary red circle and arrow pointing at nothing.

      I’m entering a phase where I’m not sure if the red arrow is pointing at nothing, or at something I’m just too old to understand/notice/care about

  I can’t believe people still fall for the bait lol

  There’s a youtuber called Spookston whose editor purposefully puts smoke alarm chirps in his videos and EVERY TIME there’s hundreds of comments telling him to replace the battery lol

  The fact we live in a time where engagement creates more push for the algorithm so more videos can be viewed by more people rather than just making good content that people share because it’s good is literally the fucking problem.

  Because it’s so much easier to make shit and have a cum stain over the word Fuck than just make good content.
