Thumbnails

Dave419

Been watching LTT for a long time, always a good way to start or finish a day. But lately the really dumb thumbnails have gotten to a point that it really stops me from watching, it's almost as bad as those thumbnails that are just photoshoped pictures of a plane crashing into cars or other click baity pictures. Like the one where Linus has 2 mini graphics cards in "The TINIEST Nvidia SLI Setup EVER?"

 

Look I get it, this is a business, people don't work for free, and the 140k red camera doesn't buy itself. And if thumbnails like this get you more views then well, fuck it right?

 

That being said, I just thought i should give some feedback from someone who has watched a lot of your content and just can't stand the click bait direction you guys have headed. Thought that any feedback is good feedback.

Just my 2 cents.

The thumbnails go away the second you start the video. Why is this such a big deal to people?

Anyone who tells you that you can't do something is unimaginative and probably a coward.

They made video addressing it (linked above ). Point being that you aren't first to complain and your opinion is understandable, but against vast majority of clicks, it doesn't have a chance.
