    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?)

        Not even just the reaction videos anymore. Basically 100% of my YouTube feed is shocked faces and I basically only follow educational YouTubers and some fairly mild hobby channels

          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.

        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.

    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.

      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!

        +1 for SponsorBlock. YouTube is unbearable without it.

    DeArrow is a plugin made by the same people who made SponsorBlock which tries, “to crowdsource better titles and thumbnails on YouTube,” like how they crowdsource sponsor segments within a video.

    Been trying it out for the past few hours and I think it makes YouTube more bearable but I always find myself clicking and checking what the old title was to make sure someone didn’t completely butcher the new one they replaced it with, but maybe that’s just me. I like it so far.

      I wonder if they’ll build that into ReVanced like they did with sponsorblock, sounds like a decent plug in.

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