In case you want to get rid of click-bait titles and thumbnails on Youtube, there's a pretty good plugin for that:

Feel like this would have made a great theme for Photoshop battles

Exactly what my homepage looks like when I'm not signed into Youtube. Seriously, is this what the average person is watching?

Don’t forget to ask me to like, subscribe, AND ring the bell. All before I’ve watched any of your video other than the long and overproduced intro.

inattentive_person,

SponsorBlock is a must for this. Its basically a crowdsourced addon for skipping stuff that you mentioned.

For most popular videos it is seamless, for other obscure ones you can save someone the agony of watching it!

Pregnenolone,

Crazy sports thumbnails is kind of its own meme at this point.

OptimalAutomation,

Not enough brightly colored arrows pointing to nothing of interest.

Needs more red circles too.

Needs a shocked looking face in the corner like something explosive just went off downstairs.

That would be the “Youtuber Dingus reacts to Classic Football Moments” video.

(Seriously, what’s the deal with “reaction” videos anyway?)

Playingwithethenew,

Easy way for the YouTubers to make fat stacks.

I forget the legal term, but it's because they are commenting on something. So they're allowed to take someone else's content, add very little to it, and still host it on their channel.

Sati1984,

The OP thumbnail is brilliant, but missing at leaset one reaction layer. Of coures I’ve seen videos were the “youtuber” was reacting to someone’s reaction to something, so…

… and this wouldn’t be that bad, were it not for the fact that people gaming the algorithm with stupid low effort content works.
