    I think the point is that you can’t get more views by being genuine and honest, as the algorithm awards griftiness

        I mean, you just aren’t going to get as many views if you don’t. Veritasium has a video on it, regarding his rubber balls video.

          Linus also mentioned it, he said he hates doing it but the clickbait videos significantly outperform others.

          I never said otherwise, but it is possible to be successful without the clickbait. There are a few creators that have managed it. They would just make more money if they went with clickbait.
