    No, it’s not.

    I’m tired of clickbait hyperbole.

      Videos are usually made to be watched then criticize content.

      If nothing useful was learned that is one thing, but getting mad by just the title is another.

      I hope your tolerance for the internet increases over time.

      Sadly SEO in social media is the norm nowadays.

        As the submitter to Lemmy you could have summarized the title more succinctly. The power is within you the whole time

            I leave the title as is, I do add stuff when possible but most tech. people know that Louis Rossmann is trust worthy.

            Not sure is lemmy is just made for the weak hearted or salty people, that clickbait is triggering to them.

            Downvotes just to downvote, instead of commenting on the substance of the videos.

            I will get better at posting, though.

            Thank you for the feedback!

                The internet allows people to say what they can’t when face to face, I think many forget how to have civil discourse with people. I have done the same when I was really young and new to the internet, hahaha… Or they are just trolling…

                Thank you and have an awesome day!

                Thank you for that, Sir Maggoty Cum Fart.

                Everything is low quality to you, so no it will not change in your opinion.

                Videos I post do have sometimes have things that you can learn from, but you will not learn anything with that mind set.

                It is not the norm videos, the videos I post are more for the layman, which I think is good for lemmy to know.

          Yes, you are right.

          I will get better at tailoring my posts to fit in with the lemmy crowd.

    Betteridge’s law of headlines has rarely been more applicable than in this case: “Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.”

      I always thought of it as stealing

      What about companies stealing my time forcing me to watch ads for goods and services I have no interest in?

        True!

        Time and energy wasted on ads, it is too damn high!

        For years they all claimed “oh, we have to snoop unto you because we get to learn what you like and don’t like, and then we can show you ads for things you might value.”

        Has anyone, anywhere, found a way to make ads more attractive to the individual viewer? NOPE. If they had, they’d have been demonstrating it - bragging about it. Was I ever more likely to buy something because of an ad on TV? Did I ever wonder where the yellow went? Never. I comparison-shopped to get the best value for the dollar. If we all do that, then may the truly best product win.
