Especially when the video is only 15 seconds long. Has the average attention span really fallen so far that one can’t wait like 10 seconds for the funny part? (The answer is yes, I know, I’ve seen kids scrolling through TikTok and skipping a video after just a second or two).
“Wait for the end” or “the last one will shock you” is because the video gets an algorithm bump if people watch it all the way to the end. Only reason. To make more money.
It should, they are not giving any proper reason to, just trying to cheaply get more money from you wasting more of your time. They are wrong, they should feel bad. Making a video with the express purpose of trying to milk money out of it is not a successful strategy long-term. Making good content that people want to watch to the end without being told to is much harder, but actually works.

Yes but you dont have to say “watch till the end,” as it makes people literally not want to do that
And would be easy for the algo to detect – if it says wait, take away credit.

Read the first sentence and gave up sorry. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
How much is impatient people and how much is the content creator not understanding how to do a hook at the beginning?
Have you ever considered that those kids already saw the video and don’t want to watch again?
