Since the video’s point is that awnings are too unattractive for people to use them, then hot damn is that so much worse. Solid metal gates - for when you want your house to look like a convenience store in a bad neighborhood when riots are about to start.
These are soooo common on old houses in Melbourne. I’ve never met anyone who lives in one, but they’re often closed all year which is insane to me (are these people sitting in the dark in their living rooms??)
The most common ones are made out of very thin plastic. There’s also older ones out of wood. The most common ones are out of aluminum, so not strictly protective. Steel shutters are rather rare on houses and more something stores would use.
…Have you never watched Technology Connections before? None of his videos are clickbait. Quite the opposite, the entire video is about whatever is in the title.
I just generally have an aversion towards clickbait of any kind to the point where I can’t stand any video / channel using it. It’s cheap and manipulative and everyone supporting such shady tactics is someone I don’t want to associate with in any form.
So? It’s still a clickbait tactic, same with the idiotically capitalized words a lot of channels use, or the shocked faces. Just because you are unaware of the psychological manipulation of clickbait tactics, does not mean this goes for everyone.
You could argue that it’s teasing or engagement baiting I guess but it isn’t clickbait.
No. Engagement baiting is, for example, purposefully stating a wrong fact or pleading people to write comments in other ways, like wanting to talk about the contents of the video while having no intention to actually read any comments, let alone talk to anyone.
Any element that is enticing you to make you click on a video, like an obtuse headline, or idiotic shocked faces, or arrows / circles / boxes of various colors, are all clickbait tactics.

You should actually watch the video, he does adress them
I don’t watch clickbait videos.

No. And I literally see two fat arrows in the thumbnail. That’d be an instant block if that would land on my YT page.
You shouldn’t judge a channel purely by thumbnail. Everyone else in this thread can attest to the high quality of his videos.
I just generally have an aversion towards clickbait of any kind to the point where I can’t stand any video / channel using it. It’s cheap and manipulative and everyone supporting such shady tactics is someone I don’t want to associate with in any form.
The two big arrows pointing to the awnings, the things the video are about and that are in the title? Huh?

I dunno what to tell you it’s by definition not clickbait. You could argue that it’s teasing or engagement baiting I guess but it isn’t clickbait.

I am getting more of a chuckle out of the person’s “I have made up my mind based on nonsense and no amount of real information will change it!!”
That is a wild stance.
I’ve lived in NY for too long and that looks like it needs spray paint and giant locks
As the video points out, those are cool but block the view, and still hear up the room.
