People in two separate Reddit posts 4 years apart discussed what YouTube trends they hated the most.

Here are the most upvoted results:

  • Stop with obnoxious thumbnail faces
  • Use your REAL voice
  • Don’t mislead
  • Don’t use OTHERS to make YOU money
  • Be careful with sponsorships. Know what your audience cares about
  • Stop overcutting throughout videos
  • Be genuine
  • Contribute original substance instead of reusing other people’s stuff
  • Stop telling people to sub, like, etc. at very beginning

This is the Reddit discussion from 2020.
