tech people get annoyed at the weirdest shit...

It wouldn't bother me too much but have a look at the explore tab, it makes the app look so cheap and like a clickhole website.

The content isn't necessarily bad but this and sponsor block will only improve things.

If people wanted what this extension did, YouTubers wouldn’t make thumbnails like this. Unfortunately, it’s what gets clicks, so they’re forced to do it to get engagement. Linus of LTT has lamented the fact that he has to make click bait titles, but it earns the big bucks so he has to do it. That’s how being a YouTuber works.

maybe I'm a sucker, but I love MKBHD and I don't know if I'm clicking into a Zenfone 10 review video without the clickbait. I'm glad I did and I learned about the phone that is almost perfect in his eyes.
