No. All these content creators, regardless if it is an online magazine or YouTubers, should forgo the clickbait by default...

That's not gonna happen any time soon, clickbait content generates more clicks, i remember watching a video of someone lamenting that they had to resort to clickbait but he showed that clickbait thumbnails and titles always performed better, maybe next generations will be more resilient to it but I wouldn't hold my breath, so in the meantime if someone craves for a solution they need a different frontend for youtube.
I feel like you have to start dropping names here. Which creator does actually produce quality content AND uses clickbait thumbnails/titles ?

And don't you dare saying "Linus Tech Tips"

Is e.g. GothamChess quality content and/or clickbait by your standard? Ana Cramling?

Just from the top of my head.
