    Even on peertube with no algorithms it is required to have a thumbnail with exaggerated emotions?

      Peertube is a YouTube front end, this person didn’t post their video there, they posted it to YouTube and need to have click bait thumbnails like everyone else.

        No, peertube is a YouTube alternative. Videos must be manually uploaded over a server which is them federated to other servers. Like Reddit vs Lemmy or Xitter vs mastodon

          It’s also possible they create and upload the same content in both locations but have to target the larger YouTube demographic via clickbait thumbnails.
