    You might hate it, but it’s proven to get more people to watch the video. It sucks, but that’s how they make money to make more videos.

      A lot of people don’t even read video titles anymore. They just look at the thumbnail and they’ll click if it catches their attention.

      I always click “Don’t recommend channel” when the thumbnail looks like this. I don’t know if it has improved recommendations at all, but I certainly don’t see it as often, which is nice.
