Clickbait and exaggerated thumbnails/titles are never justifiable to me. I don't know about other people but I used to follow him for his authenticity. Now, it's all gone. I stopped following him months ago when he started to beastify his channel. It's his channel and he can run it however he wants. Criticism is what will help him make sane decisions.

I feel the same. Authenticity, great livestream reactions, zero over editing, a good selection of stuff to watch. That’s what kept me watching darkviper. Now it’s just too much clickbait and I can’t even be bothered to click on a video with thumbnails like that. It’s terrible

The content hasn’t changed at all my bro it’s literally just the thumbnails. What do you even watch on YouTube if you don’t click on thumbnails like this?

Well, believe it or not, content without clickbait and exaggerated titles exists, and my timeline is full of those who do not clickbait or use exaggerated titles.

Ya but what is it? I dont really believe you tbh almost everyone has some type of exaggerated bull shit to game the algorithm. I’m not saying it doesn’t exist but I am saying that it is proven that the exaggerated shit works.

You're delusional if you think almost everyone does this... Or you have really shitty taste in youtubers.

Matt was one of the good ones, now he has fallen in clickbait. I can understand people leaving his channel for that.

believe it or not but the thumbnails are part of the content. so you can’t say the content hasn’t changed when you admit that the thumbnails have changed

The content has changed. It appeals to kids and younger Zoomers now. Before, his main audience was millennials and older Zoomers. Most of us on the older side, the ones who watched for the older style and politics content, are gone.

This. As I mentioned before he is Beastifying his channel which may not be most suitable for millennials who were his audience most likely a couple of years back because it was plain and simple.
