Does anyone else notice the infuriating trend of people renaming youtube videos and swapping thumbnails? (lemm.ee)

It's getting ridiculous. There's one youtuber that swapped the thumbnail 4 times this week just to make people look at it again and think it was a different video. The worst part is that it sort of works, I keep looking at it then remembering I saw something very similar from the same channel name yesterday.

I hate this so damn much.

Part of me wants to say "why are you following channels that play games with you?"

But after reading the comments it seems like this may be an issue with yt as a whole.
