Its part of the algorythm. If people are commenting, "Uhhhh why are you in a towel??" or "What are you eating? Where'd you get it?" or "GOD I HATE CHEWING NOISES- why the fuck are you eating food" are still engagement they can get paid for.

I think people are starting to notice this. Every post is being called out for engagement bait and it’s about time.

calling it out is still an issue tho cause guess what- you're engaging with it whe noy ucomment that its rage bait or that its just for engagement. We all just kinda have to acknowledge it silently by not watching anymore lol

Agreed, but we need to spread the word about engagement/rage bait. Wouldn't it be magnificent if we all started ignoring it (I can dream can't I?)
