First, my apology that I am making this off-topic remark.

Remark: is it just me, or do other people too hesitate to click a youtube link with no title given?

I feel like I at least want to know the title of the linked video, even if it doesn't reveal much about the video.

IMO it'd be very nice if people made a habit of Ctrl+c/v'ing the title along with a yt link.

Good point. I think I've seen some subreddits with a bot that does that for YouTube links.

And if your sense of humor is similar to mine, then you might just find this video by DougDoug riffing on the topic hilarious:

Thanks, I wasn't going to click and this confirms my "never click a youtube" policy is sound.

Here's a non-video link: https://knowyourmeme.com/news/a-youtube-prank-channel-just-p...

For anyone unaware, this all stems from the allegations made against Hans Niemann last year:

I've read way too much about Hans's alleged butt stuff already. I do not need more of that.

I don't think I've clicked a no-context youtube link in years. Sometimes when it seems like it might be worth clicking, I just throw the hash into a search engine.
