i just remembered that there was this concept on flipnote hatena called star begging where someone would make a flipnote game that just surmounted to "give me stars lmao." that shit worked on me because i was a stupid fucking idiot child, even tho it meant a lot of popular flipnotes were just star begging flipnotes.
that is the same exact shit happening on youtube. you make content slop aimed towards children and do a little game gimmick thing that gets them to like the video. its the same shit
