This tactic probably worked the first ten times it was done ..... but it's completely useless now

Every time I see this kind of thumbnail, I actively avoid the video, channel and the creator

Same, but they can A/B test thumbnails, so clearly it leads to more engagement.

I like that its become an easy filter for dumbed down content, so I save myself some time
