Same. I was there when he was small, I cheered when he got bigger. Then the channel started going down a path I didn't want to follow. Click baity titles with no info were the last straw for me.
There's a browser extension to replace click bait by user-generated descriptive titles. I always forget the name tho. It also works with Freetube.
That doesnt really matter here, I'm against those practices. I would be ok however, if he had a different channel that posted videos without clickbait, which is not the case so... yeah
They actually do, they do post all their videos with normal titles and separate no clickbait thumbnails on separate channels.
Yeah I know, I just jumped on the opportunity to promote that :)
