People of earth, and especially you, from North American continent. We gotta talk about your tendency to maximize everything at the expense of integrity and overall good. The today’s topic is: click bait.

I know you want to make your content attractive and watched by many. I know you tried hard and spend a lot of time on it. But did you know that it has a multiplication effect? You wasting viewers 1 minute of time, and you having 1 million views, you wasted almost 2 years of human life. Two fucking years! Let it sink in for a moment. Every second of time you wasted for your audience, are potential lifetimes. I know you don’t give a fuck about others, you are the center of the universe and nothing else matters. But, do you know that it could have been time that others could’ve used to make something productive and make your life even better?

I know this will not connect with many or anyone, but at least I tried. 🫡

Short and sweet over here. “Here’s another pic of my dog on a cliff” 😂

I have a rule where I won’t click on obviously clickbait titles on YouTube,Podcasts etc. I also heavily use the mute button on X for accounts that engagement farm constantly.

Anything worth consuming doesn’t need to be baited.

I read it. Context is missing at my end. Sounds quite interesting. All the best.

Yea but what if they waste the time so bad that 1 million people throw their phones against the wall and resolve to become master stone masons and build cathedrals?

What are the probability of that, do the math

So true!

😕

Thats why I made vlogs not vodcasts.

Are you seriously blaming people for your inability to control your own time?

Are you seriously lacking the ability to read and comprehend the text in English?

Pretty sure I read someone whining about clickbait.
