When a "Shorts" starts with Watch Till the end for "X" & spouts a big load of Bull throughout the start, yeah it's Clickbait

Post like a bot get blocked like a bot

i always interpret “watch to the end” as being a euphemism for “i did not edit this video properly” or “ipad babies are the intended audience of this video”. in any case, i will not be watching that video.

New trends

It's like having to wait through an ad on Duolingo except without the reward.

I've been blissfully unaware of this trend, because I'm not on any other social media! I get that posting this is a bit of smug self-satisfaction, which nobody likes, but I feel strongly that corporate social media is a scourge, and that far too many people farm out their critical thinking to random "content creators." Black-box content algorithms are not doing you any favors, and they will affect your thinking if you subject yourself to them.

I'm a simple man, I see TikTok I dislike.

This applies to shorts that start with "this is crazy" and "this is insane".

It’s because the “algorithm” looks at the average watch time and promotes content that people tend to watch to the end, so they incentivize creating content that has some punchline at the end, or that is just so confusing that you spend the whole time trying to figure out what is going on so you’re less likely to swipe away. If your mind can easily make a judgement about what you’re watching, you’re more likely to decide it’s something you don’t want to watch, and then swipe before the end. This counts against content in the algorithm.

Kinda your own fault for being on Tiktok in the first place ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I hate the slugs who overlay themselves front-and-center over another video to repeatedly point at whatever they want you to observe while steadily breathing through their mouth.

It's even worse when they first point to their ear and then their eye to say, "LISHEN 'n LOOKSH, bruh.."

We are truly in a Renaissance of fucking idiocy.

I can count on one hand the number of videos I've seen where "wait until the end" holds true.

The most recent in years is a video of a dog chewing on something. The owner approaches it and the dog lets go of a hose which then sprays the owner.

Was not expecting that.

It says something of the Tik-tok generations attention span if you need to put a "wait till the end" reminder for a 10 second video.

Btw if I see this anywhere its an instant downvote/skip.

Reminds me of a teacher that kept telling us about the intended syllabus every day. But complaining that he had to remove stuff because there was not enough time for everything, while wasting half an hour everyday instead of going for what was possible.
