I'm all for high quality captions, and turn them on occasionally when dialog is hard to hear (or in another language, usually prefer to dubbing). I also don't doubt that they improve comprehension. But on average I find them distracting from the visuals and prefer to have them off by default.

Obviously it should be a preference one can toggle, regardless of the default setting. I think they would get a lot better if the default was on instead of off.

TikTok generally has captions, usually burned into the video clip, you can't turn them on/off.
