You must think marketing is made of infallible geniuses. Just because it exists doesn’t make it good.

They didn’t say it was good, just that it’s what works; that’s why it’s everywhere.

Nobody said “good”, but if it keeps existing, it works or at least isn’t harmful. Bit like evolution.

Or there are people with an interest in keeping it that way.

I don’t think there’s any big conspiracy about YouTube titles, but let’s not pretend thing like wealth inequality still exist because they’re not harmful.

What “interest” would they have to keep it that way if it wasn’t working?

Wealth inequality exists because it works for the people who have the power to control it. In a way, it’s not harmful ENOUGH to change evolutionarily.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=S2xHZPH5Sng

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.

Good is what generates money. If it works it’s good
