    They knocked off kurzgesagt’s style and made it look so clickbaity. So gross.

      I’ll defend Infographics here. These guys do a great job with their content IMO. Yes, the titles and thumbnails are always kinda cringe but they have been putting out good stuff consistently for years and do so without AI. They always get shit for their titles but the content itself is way better than what you’d expect usually.

        Interesting to note. I saw they were ripping off the kurzgesagt style and blocked the channel immediately. If they are legit I may check them out.

        That’s good to know that they aren’t just using AI to mimic Kurzgesagt and that their content is legit. Thanks.

        I might give them a try but I really can’t stand clickbait titles and thumbnails to the point I just disregard them outright in a futile effort to discourage such behaviour.

          Yeah playing the clickbait game is one thing, but they’re outright hoping to trick people into thinking they’re another channel. It’s the only reason I clicked through (and immediately backed out)
